Jan Schatteman ( https://hibernate.atlassian.net/secure/ViewProfile.jspa?accountId=557058%... ) *commented* on HHH-16711 ( https://hibernate.atlassian.net/browse/HHH-16711?atlOrigin=eyJpIjoiNjhmYz... ) Re: Reading entities using @MappedSuperclass does not work with classes in foreign packages ( https://hibernate.atlassian.net/browse/HHH-16711?atlOrigin=eyJpIjoiNjhmYz... ) I’ve tried this out on the main branch and it works fine, so I would wager that this is either a bug in Spring or maybe a configuration issue. In either case if you are convinced that this is a bug in Hibernate, please provide a pure Hibernate reproducer demonstrating that. You can use the hibernate template project to make this easier ( https://github.com/hibernate/hibernate-test-case-templates ) ( https://hibernate.atlassian.net/browse/HHH-16711#add-comment?atlOrigin=ey... ) Add Comment ( https://hibernate.atlassian.net/browse/HHH-16711#add-comment?atlOrigin=ey... ) Get Jira notifications on your phone!
