ejbql error

[jamesohearn]

My environment:

Windows XP sp2
Eclipse v3.0.2
MyEclipse v3.8.4
JBoss v4.0.2

I get the following after Jboss deploys my entity beans:

15:14:16,609 INFO [STDOUT] org.jboss.ejb.plugins.cmp.ejbql.ParseException: Encountered "x.ID" at line 1, column 46.
Was expecting one of:
"NOT" ...
"(" ...
(rest of text omitted)

Here is the offending finder method:

@ejb.finder view-type="local"
description="Component finder by id"
signature="java.util.Collection findByID(com.xxx.model.ComponentPK ID)"
query="Select OBJECT(x) FROM Component x WHERE x.ID = ?1"
method-intf="LocalHome"

Here is the get method for the attribute:

/**
* @ejb.interface-method view-type="both"
* @ejb.persistence column-name="C_ID"
*
* @return Primary Key
*/
public abstract com.xxx.model.ComponentPK getID();

I get similar parse exception errors on all of the finder methods I defined on all my entity beans.

I appreciate any insights you can give.

Thanks.

I've got some additional information.

It seems that the finder method that I define that refers to the primary key field is the one that is causing the problems. Below is the ejb bean definition:

* @ejb.bean name="XHQComponent"
* display-name="XHQComponent"
* description="XHQ Component Entity Bean"
* jndi-name="/ejb/ComponentHome"
* local-jndi-name="/ejb/ComponentLocalHome"
* type="CMP"
* cmp-version="2.x"
* primkey-field="ID"
* view-type="both"

The ID field is not a java.lang.Integer or an int: it is a specialized primary key class, ComponentPK:

* @jboss.unknown-pk class="com.xxx.model.ComponentPK"
* field-name="ID"
* column-name="XC_ID"
* jdbc-type="INTEGER"
* sql-type="INTEGER"
* auto-increment="true"

Is there some specific JBoss XDoclet tag that is missing that will allow the ejbql parsing to succeed?
