I have an ejb3 entity has an IDENTITY field and a before insert trigger. The problem is that hibernate sets the IDENTITY value of my entity to 0 every time causing NonUniqueObjectExceptions when I create more than one of them in a session. I verified that it is the trigger that is causing it because it does not happen when I remove it. I need the triggers due to legacy applications that insert into to table. Are there any ways to workaround this? Thanks View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=3972171#...
