-----------------------------------
CREATE TABLE DRAWINGS
{
...
PT_X_1 INT NULL,
PT_Y_1 INT NULL,
PT_X_2 INT NULL,
PT_Y_2 INT NULL,
...
) class MyDrawing
{
@Field
@Embedded(fields={
@Field(embeddedFieldName="pt1",
[EMAIL
PROTECTED](name="PT_1_X"),@Column(name="PT_1_Y")}),
@Field(embeddedFieldName="pt2",
[EMAIL
PROTECTED](name="PT_2_X"),@Column(name="PT_2_Y")})
})
MyLine line;
}
I don't think this mapping works very well. It requires that the implementation
use some defaults or guess which field maps to Point.x and which maps to
Point.y.
I think we need to use explicit embedded-embedded mapping, so that each
embedded field gets its own embedded mapping. Something like this (this doesn't
compile, just to stimulate discussion):
) class MyDrawing
{
@Field
@Embedded(fields={
@Field(embeddedFieldName="pt1",
[EMAIL PROTECTED](fields={
@Field(embeddedFieldName="x", [EMAIL PROTECTED](name="PT_1_X")), // mapping
from x to PT1x
@Field(embeddedFieldName="y", [EMAIL PROTECTED](name="PT_1_Y")) // mapping from
y to PT1y
@Field(embeddedFieldName="pt2",
[EMAIL PROTECTED](fields={
@Field(embeddedFieldName="x", [EMAIL PROTECTED](name="PT_2_X")), // mapping
from x to PT2x
@Field(embeddedFieldName="y", [EMAIL PROTECTED](name="PT_2_Y")), // mapping
from y to PT2y
})
MyLine line;

> JDO2 Annotations

> Key: JDO-403
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JDO-403
> Project: JDO
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: api2
> Affects Versions: JDO 2 final
> Reporter: Andy Jefferson
> Assignee: Michelle Caisse
> Fix For: JDO 2 maintenance release 1
>
> Attachments: embedded.patch, jdo_2_1_annotations.jar
>
>
> It would be desirable for JDO2 to have its own set of annotations. We have
> developed a set within JPOX that would likely serve as a starting point for
> such a set. In my opinion they should be
> 1. Split into javax.jdo.annotations.jdo and javax.jdo.annotations.orm
> 2. Move ORM attributes from some of the JDO annotations and have a ORM
> annotation.
