Maybe I am going the wrong way, but I explain what I try to do: I persist an new entity which has a child entity (many-to-one relationship). The entity has a foreign key of the child, but the child is not updated and already exists. The entity class has a field of type child entity. So I want to set the foreign key easily by entity.setChild(new ChildEntity(childId)) instead of ChildEntity c = new ChildEntity(); c.setId(childId); entity.setChild(c); 3 lines instead of 1! I don't need to set the other fields of the child entity as it is not persisted.

By "session.load()" do you mean EntityManager.find()? Or of which class is your session object? I don't have auto-generated IDs, but the constructor(id) is not generated. Anyway, if your approach is better, I'll use that. -------------------------------------------------------------- Reply to this message by going to Community [http://community.jboss.org/message/603330#603330] Start a new discussion in JBoss Tools at Community [http://community.jboss.org/choose-container!input.jspa?contentType=1&...]
