Gavin King ( https://hibernate.atlassian.net/secure/ViewProfile.jspa?accountId=557058%... ) *updated* an issue Hibernate ORM ( https://hibernate.atlassian.net/browse/HHH?atlOrigin=eyJpIjoiOWQxMzhiNWM1... ) / Bug ( https://hibernate.atlassian.net/browse/HHH-16592?atlOrigin=eyJpIjoiOWQxMz... ) HHH-16592 ( https://hibernate.atlassian.net/browse/HHH-16592?atlOrigin=eyJpIjoiOWQxMz... ) @MapsId and @ManyToOne ( https://hibernate.atlassian.net/browse/HHH-16592?atlOrigin=eyJpIjoiOWQxMz... ) Change By: Gavin King ( https://hibernate.atlassian.net/secure/ViewProfile.jspa?accountId=557058%... ) It seems very clear that the JPA spec expects the following mapping to work: { noformat code:java }@Entity static class Loan { @Id @Column(name = "LOAN_ID") private Long id; @OneToMany(cascade = CascadeType.ALL, mappedBy = "loan") private List<Extension> extensions = new ArrayList<>(); } @Entity static class Extension { @Id @Column(name = "EX_LOAN_ID") private Long exLoanId; @Id @Column(name = "EX_NO") private Long exNo; @Column(name = "EX_EXTENSION_DAYS") private Long exExtensionDays; @ManyToOne @MapsId @JoinColumn(name = "EX_LOAN_ID") private Loan loan; }{ noformat code } The workaround is to use {{insertable=false, updateable=false}} instead of {{@MapsId}}. { noformat code:java }@Entity static class Loan { @Id @Column(name = "LOAN_ID") private Long id; @OneToMany(cascade = CascadeType.ALL, mappedBy = "loan") private List<Extension> extensions = new ArrayList<>(); } @Entity static class Extension { @Id @Column(name = "EX_LOAN_ID") private Long exLoanId; @Id @Column(name = "EX_NO") private Long exNo; @Column(name = "EX_EXTENSION_DAYS") private Long exExtensionDays; @ManyToOne @JoinColumn(name = "EX_LOAN_ID", insertable = false, updatable = false) private Loan loan; }{ noformat code } ( https://hibernate.atlassian.net/browse/HHH-16592#add-comment?atlOrigin=ey... ) Add Comment ( https://hibernate.atlassian.net/browse/HHH-16592#add-comment?atlOrigin=ey... ) Get Jira notifications on your phone!
