[hibernate-issues] [Hibernate-JIRA] Commented: (METAGEN-60) Embedded class implementing List interface leads to missing identifier

[Jan Stolze (JIRA)]

    [ http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/browse/METAGEN-60?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=42814#action_42814 ] 

Jan Stolze commented on METAGEN-60:
-----------------------------------

Databases do not support array fields. I can however achieve this by using an embedded field which imitates a list, which converts its content to a csv String object. This String object can then be stored in a character blob. Thats what I try to achieve here. I will see if the @Transient annotation solves the problem.

> I have an embedded class which implements the _java.util.List_ interface when running the annotation processor for the JPA meta model it fails with the message 
> {noformat}
> Note: Determining access type for ListOfString2
>     [javac] ListOfString2_.java:9: <identifier> expected
>     [javac] public static volatile SingularAttribute<ListOfString2, String> ;
> {noformat}
> when looking into the generated class the message makes sense because the identifier is indeed missing, question is how is that possible. See attachment for embedded object and generated output of the meta model class.
