[jboss-user] [Persistence, JBoss/CMP, Hibernate, Database] - Hibernate proxy class problem

[georgesberscheid]

Hi,

I'm having the following odd situation:

  | @Entity 
  | @Inheritance(strategy = InheritanceType.JOINED)
  | public abstract class Customer { @Id private int id; }
  | 
  | @Entity 
  | public class SomeCustomer extends Customer { private String name; }
  | 

I'm using Entity Manager to retrieve entities by their primary key:

  | entityManager.find(Customer.class, 5);
  | 

The primary key 5 belongs to a SomeCustomer entity. It's in the id field of both Customer and SomeCustomer tables (due to join inheritance). However, the query returns an object that has the type Customer_$$_javassist_16 that cannot be cast to SomeCustomer (ClassCastException).
However, if I execute the following query:

  | entityManager.find(SomeCustomer.class, 5);
  | 

I will see a warning in my logfile: ProxyWarnLog: Narrowing proxy to class SomeCustomer - this operation breaks ==
Subsequent call to the first find() query will now also return the right object of the right type.

Does anybody know what's going on here or how I can manually narrow down my proxy object to what I want to have if it fails?

Thanks a lot,
Georges
