@Transient annotation in Embeddable...does not work
I have an entity bean called State mapped to a table "StateTB". Also StateContext is embedded object mapped to the same table which needs a reference "currentState" to the encapsulating class. Since that reference obviously will not be mapped to any column in the table, I marked the field as @Transient and also the corresponding getter. Following is a simpllified example code...
@Entity
@Table(name = "StateTB")
public class State{
protected int a;
@Embedded
protected StateContext stateContext = new StateContext(this);
@Column(name = "colA")
public getA(){...}
public setA(){...}
@Embedded
@AttributeOverrides({
@AttributeOverride(name = "b", column = @Column(name = "colB"))
})
public StateContext getStateContext() {
return stateContext;
}
public void setStateCtx(StateContext stateCtx) {
this.stateContext = stateCtx;
}
}
@Embeddable(access = AccessType.PROPERTY)
public class StateContext{
protected int b;
@Transient
protected State currentState;
//constructor
public StateContext(State state){
currentState = state;
}
public getB(){...}
public setB(){...}
@Transient
public getCurrentState(){
return currentState;
}
public setCurrentState(State state){
currentState = state;
}
}
At deploy time JBoss seems to deploy the entity beans fine UNTIL it starts to "process collection mappings" where it throws the following exception:
:26:49,845 WARN [ServiceController] Problem creating service jboss.j2ee:service=EJB3,module=pu_services.ejb3

at org.hibernate.cfg.annotations.CollectionBinder.bindCollectionSecondPas.............
.........

and finally in the final summary report at the completion of server start up it throws the following report...
--- MBEANS THAT ARE THE ROOT CAUSE OF THE PROBLEM ---

I cant figure what i am doing wrong... Has anyone used @Transient in an embeddable successfully before?
Any pointer will be greatly appreciated...
