Hi,
I have a User entity that holds set of Role's. A Role is of an Enum
type. I tried using the @PersistentCollection and @ContainerTable
annotations as follows:
public enum Role {
NORMAL_USER, ADMINISRATOR
}
@Entity
public class User {
..
@PersistentCollection
@ContainerTable(name = "user_role", joinColumns = @XJoinColumn(name
= "user_id", referencedColumnName = "id"))
private Set<Role> roles;
}
I guess my question is how do I define the column in the container table
to which the Role.name() will be saved? (I noticed that Kodo defines an
@ElementColumn annotation which is not present in OpenJPA). Btw, when
openjpa builds the schema for this mapping, no exception is thrown but
also the "user_role" table is not created, any idea?
cheers,
Uri
