>
> Using the @DiscriminatorType of Integer with Single Table Inheritance, I've
> come across two problems...
> o The @DiscriminatorValue seems to be required on abstract classes in the
> hierarchy. This should not be required. Actually, according to section
> 9.1.31 of the spec, this annotation should only be required on concrete
> classes. But, without this annotation, I am getting an exception about not
> being able to cast a String to an Int.
> o This exception that I am receiving with a "missing" @DiscriminatorValue
> would indicate that the default value being provided by OpenJPA is a String
> all the time instead of basing the default the value off of the
> DiscriminatorType of Integer. This is further described in Table 21 of
> section 9.1.31 of the spec.
> As described, I have a workaround by specifying a @DiscriminatorValue on the
> abstract class, but these seem to be real problems that need to be addressed.
> Thus, this defect.
