Maria Jurcovicova commented on OPENJPA-2126:
--------------------------------------------

I would expect that naming generation rules when the @ManyToMany is being 
represented by a Map should be the same as when it is represented by a 
Collection. 

I changed this issue priority to Minor, since it does not really need it to be 
fixed.

>             Project: OpenJPA
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: jdbc, jpa
>    Affects Versions: 2.1.1

> According to JPA v2 specification page 48, the joining table should have two 
> columns. One column should have foreign key to owners table and the other 
> should have foreign key to the inverse table. 
> The name of the column referencing the owner should be:
> * the name of the relationship property or field of inverse entity ; 
> * underscore "_";
> * the name of the primary key column in owner table. 
> OpenJPA assumes that the name of  the column referencing the owner is:
> * owner entity name ; 
> * underscore "_";
> * the name of the primary key column in owner table. 
> The name of the column referencing the inverse is correct.
> Example entities:
> @Entity
> @Table(name="tblMtmOwner")
> public class MtmOwner {
>   @Id
>   private long id;
>   private String name;
>   @ManyToMany
>   private Collection<MtmInverse> inverses = new ArrayList<MtmInverse>();
> }
>  
> @Entity
> public class MtmInverse{
>   @Id
>   private long id;
>   @ManyToMany(mappedBy="inverses")
>   @MapKey(name="name")
>   private Map<String, MtmOwner> owners = new HashMap<String, MtmOwner>();
> }
> Expected column name: owners_id
> OpenJPA column name: mtmowner_id
