Geraldo Xexéo updated OPENJPA-694:
----------------------------------
Description:
Hibernate explicitly defines the behavior of secondary tables. (such as in
http://www.hibernate.org/hib_docs/annotations/api/org/hibernate/annotations/Table.html#fetch())
I checked both the original JPA specification and many implementations and none
of them talks about the subject. Hibernate, however, has this in the
documentation.
Can you confirm it? It has a lot of side effects, for example:
Can you answer on the implemented behavior and comment on my two examples?
Should this be pointed to JPA specification responsibles?
Thanks,

was:
I have some code running that makes me believe that the @Secondarytable
annotation has the INNER JOIN behavior.
I checked both the original JPA specification and many implementations and none
of them talks about the subject. Hibernate, however, has this in the
documentation.
Can you confirm it? It has a lot of side effects, for example:
1) Some implementations will not create a row in the secondary table if all the
fields are NULL, this will make an object impossible to retrieve or edit.
(since the inner join will return null, but it will exist on the primary table).
2) Rows from legacy tables that can´t be extended, a good reason to use
secondarytable, will not be retrieved if we do not create, probably "out of the
box", rows in the secondary table, even if we don´t have any information to
fill there.
Can you answer on the implemented behavior and comment on my two examples?
Should this be pointed to JPA specification responsibles?
Thanks,
