             Summary: @JoinColumn annotation doesn't fully support column names requiring double-quotes
                 Key: HIBERNATE-142
                 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/HIBERNATE-142
             Project: Hibernate Integration
          Issue Type: Bug
         Environment: Hibernate 4.2.4-Final
Eclipse Juno
J2EE 3.0 Web app
            Reporter: Paul Spinelli
            Assignee: Steve Ebersole
            Priority: Minor


Due to the way an existing database schema has been configured, my JPA annotations (using Hibernate as my provider) all required that table names/column names be double-quoted:
(e.g. String ID_COLUMN_NAME = "\"Id\"";)

This does not pose a problem EXCEPT when using the @JoinColumn annotation (specifically, the 'referencedColumnName' attribute). This DOES NOT work (I get an error that the logical column name cannot be found):
@JoinColumn(name=ID_COLUMN_NAME, referencedColumnName=ID_COLUMN_NAME)

However, this DOES work:
@JoinColumn(name=ID_COLUMN_NAME, referencedColumnName="`Id`")

It seems that the 'name' attribute supports double-quotes while the 'referencedColumnName' attribute does not. Is there a reason it should not?
