Entity key generation

[silbunn]

I have an entity bean with declared primary key as follows:

 @Id(generate = GeneratorType.IDENTITY)
 @Column(name = "employerId")
 public int getId()
 {
 return id;
 }
 public void setId(int id)
 {
 this.id = id;
 }

For some reason when I do "EntityManager.persist()" the bean gets persisted in DB storage with generated key, but the entity itself doesn't get "id" set. I haven't found solution to this -- any ideas please?

I'm using GeneratorType.AUTO without problems on MySQL... and the ID field is set after calling persist(). Might want to give that a try...

I have also tried GeneratorType.AUTO with no luck, and more strangely my persistent store is MySQL as well...
