> The SearchFactoryImpl does not handle inherited annotations. This could be usefull for abstract classes with it's concrete implementations. E.g. AndroMDA uses this mechanism for creating the interface as an abstract class and the the implementation as the hibernate object, which can be used in the services. Annotation inheritance is not part of the annotation specifiation, but there exists a extension from http://www.fusionsoft-online.com/articles-java-annotations.php to access the inherited annotations. It could be done in hibernate in the same way.
