[hibernate-issues] [Hibernate-JIRA] Commented: (HSEARCH-1108) programmatic API doesn't work correctly for entities with @MappedSuperclass parent

[Manthos (JIRA)]

    [ https://hibernate.onjira.com/browse/HSEARCH-1108?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=46619#comment-46619 ] 

Manthos commented on HSEARCH-1108:
----------------------------------

As far as I remember, programmatic API creates Annotations (with AnnotationFactory) and works like you annotate your Entities in your source.

ex: 
{code}
@MappedSuperclass 
public class Foo {
  @Basic
  public String foo;
}

@Entity 
public class Bar extends Foo {
  @Basic
  public String bar;
}
{code}

So you have to...

{code}
searchMapping.entity(Foo.class)
  .property("foo", ElementType.FIELD).field(); 

searchMapping.entity(Bar.class).indexed();
  .property("bar", ElementType.FIELD).field(); 
{code}

As far as I know, per Entity Mapping is currently not possible. So if you have another Entity, ex 'Baz extends Foo', Baz inherits Foo mappings. The same for Embeddable classes.

It would be a nice if programmatic API could manage inherited properties (from MapperSuperclass and Embeddable) per Entity... but I'm afraid that this is a big change...

Please feel free to clarify if I'm wrong.

>             Project: Hibernate Search
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: mapping
>    Affects Versions: 4.0.0.Final, 4.1.0.Final
>         Environment: HibernateCore 4.1.2, HSearch 4.1.0, Glassfish3 (JPA) or even as a standalone java app
>            Reporter: David Janca
>              Labels: candidate_for_next, programmatic
>
> The hibernate search configuration specified by programmatic API (SearchMapping class) is ignored for entities that have @MappedSuperclass parent.
> All fields that are declared in a @MappedSuperclass parent are not recognized by programmatic config and ignored (when configured like this: mapping.property("property", ElementType.FIELD)). 
> We've already found a workaround for this problem - to overwrite getter method in @Entity class (just calling super.getter) and configure it like following: mapping.property("property", ElementType.METHOD). But I think that's not the real solution.
