Hi,
using a single table inheritance strategy with postgres 7.3 always causes a
ConstraintViolationException when I try to merge the changes.
I first create a new enity bean, which works. Then I add it to a OneToMany
collection of another entity bean and try to merge the change. This is when I
get a ConstraintViolationException.
Here is the setup:
| @Entity
| @Inheritance(strategy = InheritanceType.SINGLE_TABLE)
|
| public class Person implements Serializable
| {
| @Id
| @GeneratedValue(strategy = GenerationType.IDENTITY)
| long id;
| ..
| }
|
| @Entity
| @Name("junior")
|
| public class Junior extends Person
| {
| ...
| }
|
| @Entity
| @Name("school")
|
| public class School implements Serializable
| {
| @Id
| @NotNull
| @Length(min = 5, max = 40)
| String schoolName
|
| @OneToMany(cascade = {CascadeType.ALL})
| List<Juniors> juniors = new ArrayList<Juniors>();
|
| @OneToMany(cascade = {CascadeType.ALL})
| List<Softmore> softmores = new ArrayList<Softmore>();
|
| @OneToMany(cascade = {CascadeType.ALL})
| List<Senior> seniors = new ArrayList<Senior>();
| ...
|
The following code always throws a ConstraintViolationException
| // works
| entityManager.persist(junior);
| // this causes a contraint violation
| school.getJuniors().add(junior);
| school = entityManager.merge(rewriteConfiguration);
|
The reason why this happens, is because the columns of the database table,
which keeps track of the OneToMany relationships are all defined to be NOT
NULL. Here comes the table:
|
| school_schoolname character varying(40)
| NOT NULL
|
| juniors_id bigint
| NOT NULL
|
| softmores_id bigint
| NOT NULL
|
| seniors_id bigint
| NOT NULL
|
|
However, all those columns SHOULD be nullable, but hibernate does not set them
up like this. How can I make sure hibernate does this?
