[jbossseam-issues] [JBoss JIRA] Updated: (JBSEAM-2212) framework objects do not work with entities mapped in *.hbm.xml

framework objects do not work with entities mapped in *.hbm.xml --------------------------------------------------------------- Key: JBSEAM-2212 URL: http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBSEAM-2212 Project: JBoss Seam Issue Type: Bug Components: Framework Affects Versions: 2.0.0.CR3 Reporter: daniel varga Assigned To: Pete Muir Priority: Minor Fix For: 2.0.1.GA I develop a web app which has it model classes in a separate jar that also contains the hbm.xml files for mapping the entities. The entities are accessed through standard JPA EntityManager. There are both query and home components declared in components.xml: <framework:entity-query name="subsystemList" ejbql="select s from CaasSubsystem s" max-results="1000" /> <framework:entity-home name="subsystemHome" entity-class="com.comptel.cs.caas.pojo.CaasSubsystem" /> Everything goes fine until I delete an entity with the home component. Then Seam.getEntityClass gets invoked and returns null, which in turn causes the following: Caused by: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Not an entity class: com.comptel.cs.caas.pojo.CaasSubsystem at org.jboss.seam.Entity.forClass(Entity.java:208) at org.jboss.seam.persistence.PersistenceProvider.getName(PersistenceProvider.java:75) at org.jboss.seam.persistence.HibernatePersistenceProvider.getName(HibernatePersistenceProvider.java:246) at org.jboss.seam.framework.EntityHome.getEntityName(EntityHome.java:123) at org.jboss.seam.framework.Home.getSimpleEntityName(Home.java:255) at org.jboss.seam.framework.Home.raiseAfterTransactionSuccessEvent(Home.java:250) at org.jboss.seam.framework.EntityHome.remove(EntityHome.java:64) This is because the Seam.getEntityClass checks for @javax.persisence.Entity annotation or ejb3 xml mapping, but it does not take into account that entities can mapped by hbm.xml files too. I tried using hibernate-entity-home and hibernate-entity-query components , but it did not help and the exception occurred more often, not only after invoking remove on the entity home component.
