Hi Julien,
I'm assuming since you mention the JavaFileMerger that you're using the
Eclipse plugin?
I'm not that familiar with how the JavaFileMerger works, but if it's
anything like how the SQLMapGenerators work in the standalone version of
Ibator, it's going to completely regenerate anything that it originally
generated (indicated by the comment and the @ibatorgenerated tag). So it
will overwrite your annoation you added. I think the merge tools will keep
any additional fields or methods that were not originally generated, but
recreate the ones that Ibator is responsible for.
Jeff or someone else can correct me if it's different inside Eclipse.
One way to make sure this sticks would be to create a plugin that adds the
proper annotation for you. You'd want to override the modelFieldGenerated
method from IbatorPluginAdapter.
Hope this helps,
Dan Turkenkopf
