Hi kkangsar, 1) the DiscriminatorColumn name defaults to "DTYPE", so you need to specify the name only if you don't like the default ;-). 2) I don't have a simple answer this question ;-). Performance should not be an issue, because both approaches add the columns to the database table of the entity, so there are no additional entities. The approach with the @OneToOne relation ship (suggested by itsme) would result in an additional table. The benefit of the inheritance approach is that you don't need to add properties (access to your embedded object) to the subclass. So it saves you some lines of code ;-). Hope this helps Wolfgang View the original post : http://www.jboss.org/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=4216895#4216895 Reply to the post : http://www.jboss.org/index.html?module=bb&op=posting&mode=reply&p=4216895 ___ jboss-user mailing list jboss-user@lists.jboss.org https://lists.jboss.org/mailman/listinfo/jboss-user

This is only a decision of the architecture of your object (and following up the database) model. We use address only as tight as possible with the persons we track. So the address is not useful anymore when the person is gone. To avoid keeping orphans in the database we inlined address fields by using @Embeddable.

My understanding of using inheritance SINGLE TABLE method is when the object is polymorphism, it means the single object can be describes multiple possible states. For example: Account object, we may have SavingAccount and CheckingAccount, SavingAccount and CheckingAccount share some common attribute and have their own specific attribute. For this kind of object, we may use inheritance SINGLE TABLE method. But in my case, Address.class, will it the right way to use this method? Please advise. Thanks.

Hi Wolfgang, Thanks for provided another solution. But I have the following question. 1. Do we need to specify the @@DiscriminatorColumn in the Address class, if yes, which column to specify? 2. What is the advantage by using @Inheritance over @Embedded? and when to use each of the method.

Hi,
though you already solved the problem, here is another idea: you could also use
Inheritance strategies.
Declare your Address entity this way:
@Entity
| @Inheritance(strategy=InheritanceType.SINGLE_TABLE)
| public abstract class Adress implements Serializable
| {
|
Let Person and Customer inherit from them:
@Entity
| @DiscriminatorValue(value="person")
| public class Person extends Address
| {
Best regards
Wolfgang

[jboss-user] [EJB 3.0] - Re: @embedable annotation
For the first one (use of @Embaddable and @Embedded) Customer class must be
changed to:
| @Entity
| public class Customer implements Serializable {
| // ... your member fields
| private Address address;
| // ... your set-/get-Methods
| @Embedded
| public Address getAddress() {
| return address;
| }
| // ... setter as well
| }
|
For the second one (keeping @Embeddable and building a wrapper):
| @Entity
| public class AddressWrapper implements Serializable {
|
| @Id
| private String id;
|
| @Embedded
| private Address address;
|
| // getter and setter
| }
|
In this case your Customer class must be changed like
| @Entity
| public class Customer implements Serializable {
| // ... your member fields
| private AddressWrapper address;
| // ... your set-/get-Methods
| @OneToOne
| public AddressWrapper getAddress() {
| return address;
| }
| // ... setter as well
| }
|
For the last one you must change the annotation of Address to @Entity and
change your Customer class like the above (without Wrapper).

This is what i did
@Embeddable
public class Address implements Serializable{
private static final long serialVersionUID = 1L;
private String addr1;
private String addr2;
private String addr3;
@Column(name="ADDR1", length=30)
public String getAddr1() {
return addr1;
}
public void setAddr1(String addr1) {
this.addr1 = addr1;
}
@Column(name="ADDR2", length=30)
public String getAddr2() {
return addr2;
}
public void setAddr2(String addr2) {
this.addr2 = addr2;
}
@Column(name="ADDR3", length=30)
public String getAddr3() {
return addr3;
}
public void setAddr3(String addr3) {
this.addr3 = addr3;
}
}
@Entity
public class Customer implements java.io.Serializable {
private static final long serialVersionUID = 1L;
private String Id;
private String custName;
@Id
public String getId() {
return id;
}
public void setId(String id) {
this.id = id;
}
public String getCustName() {
return custName;
}
public void setCustName(String custName) {
this.custName = custName;
}
}
I dont know how to embed the address into customer.class. Can you please give
some help. Thanks

"If you want to reuse your address entity, so there will be a address table, you can create a simple wrapper for your address with nothing more than an identifier and an embedded field address or your address must be a full entity and not an embeddable." Would you mind to provide me the sample code for the above? thanks in advanced.

[jboss-user] [EJB 3.0] - Re: @embedable annotation
Yes. This is - especially for addresses - the common case, so there is no need to travers a relationship between tables. If you want to reuse your address entity, so there will be a address table, you can create a simple wrapper for your address with nothing more than an identifier and an embedded field address or your address must be a full entity and not an embeddable.

Do you mean my customer and vendor table will contain all the address column?

Per default hibernate creates your tables with all the fields of address as columns in that tables. So address is only a subset of columns of the table vendor or customer.
