    error calling action component / binary fields in entity bea

    marobashi

      Just a quick question, and it's very possible I'm just missing something or doing something stupid...

      I set up a User entity bean based on the booking example, but I modified it slightly to include a numeric (Long) identity column, similar to entity examples I've seen in Hibernate.

      I basically copied over (and modified as necessary) the booking views and action beans (and interfaces) associated with registering a new user and logging in.

      My application failed, so I tried successively eliminating some of the differences between my app and the booking app.

      It turns out that when I omitted the Long id field (and made username the id column just like the booking example), everything works like a charm.

      This may have been discussed elsewhere on the forums (I did see a post about binary fields in entity beans...)

      Are Long / other types unsupported in this context, or can I circumvent that by including a specific kind of column definition?

      Thanks,

          There is no reason why this should not work.

          But you have not provided any of the needed information: stacktraces, etc.

            Give me a few minutes and I'll attempt to duplicate this. I figured if it was a simple answer I wouldn't chew up forum space with stacktraces.

              Superfluous code, perhaps...

              Seems like the real issue is the inclusion of the method

              public int hashCode() {
              return id.hashCode();
              }

              in the entity bean. Once I take this out, everything works fine and I no longer receive the error:

              ... (teach me to copy something I don't understand)...

              Is this issue trivial at this point (i.e. just don't include the hashcode method), or would you still like to see the code / anything else?

              Thanks,

                Right, if you refer to Hibernate in Action, you will find advice about implementing equals()/hasCode() correctly for an entity object.

                  Once again, I appreciate your help and patience.
