Hi Michelle,
It seems that jpox maps Object as serialized by default. Where there is
no serialized or embedded attribute on the field, we map to a FK column,
e.g. OBJECT102 BIGINT REFERENCES SIMPLE_CLASS, giving a jpox error:
Well we interpret all types as serialized="false", but in section 18.14 of the
spec "java.lang" types (which Object is) are to be embedded="true" by
default. So we interpret this as serialising the Object into the table of the
class, into a BLOB column.
SimpleInterface, which we map identically to Object, works fine.
Because we treat an Interface as embedded="false" by default (since it's not
specified in the list of embedded types in 18.14, so its effectively a
PersistenceCapable in that respect).
