[hibernate-issues] [Hibernate-JIRA] Commented: (HHH-4254) @Column annotation ignored when placed on entity's @Id property

[drekbour (JIRA)]

    [ http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/browse/HHH-4254?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=37801#action_37801 ] 

drekbour commented on HHH-4254:
-------------------------------

Just ran into this one (Hibernate 3.5.3). We are quite surprised this is two years old and has no visible response.  Our 5-minute workaround was to rename our Java field names to match the annotation:
{noformat}
@Id
@Column("TableID")
private int TableID;
{noformat}
As you can imagine this doesn't sit well with anyone!

> Hibernate docs specify that when using a compound key class, a Hibernate optional feature is to place @Column annotations within the key class. The observed behavior is that Hibernate ignores @Column if placed ANYWHERE ELSE, for example, on the entity's ID properties. In other words, the standard JPA way of annotating ID fields is not working under Hibernate, and the "optional" feature is mandatory.
> Example how to reproduce (see comments inside the code regarding the inconsistency above). Accessors were omitted for clarity:

> @Entity 
> public class SecurityIdentity implements Serializable { 
>     
>     public SecurityIdentity() {}

>     public Long getId() ... 
>     @Column(name="IDENTITY_NAME") 
>     public String getName() ... 
>     
>     @Override public boolean equals(Object o) ... 
>     @Override public int hashCode() ... 
> } 
> // the domain class 
> @Entity 
> public class SecurityDomain implements Serializable {
