Updating to 1.2.2 - Type not supported: org.hibernate.type.ManyToOneType

[jquandt]

We've been using Envers 1.2.1.GA w/ Hibernate 3.3.2.GA for some time now.  I'm attempting to update to 1.2.2 to make use of the RelationTargetAuditMode.NOT_AUDITED feature.  However, simply dropping the new library in place with no code changes gives the attached stack trace.  Truncated version below.

Including the RelationTargetAuditMode.NOT_AUDITED parameter or @NotAudited on all audited ManyToOne relationships made no difference.

I'm trying to add relationships like below.  This relationship, without the targetAuditMode parameter, worked successfully in 1.2.1.  SomeEntity was not audited in 1.2.1 and was a static dictionary object, so I didn't have to worry about an Audit join table or an audit table for SomeEntity.  The column would be correctly filled in the audit table.  However, under 1.2.2 the same code does not deploy.

    @ManyToOne( fetch = FetchType.LAZY )
    @JoinColumn( name="SOME_ID", nullable=true )
    @Audited(targetAuditMode = RelationTargetAuditMode.NOT_AUDITED)
    private SomeEntity       someEntity;

Ah, in fact I know what the problem might be. Do you have any non-audited entities that contain a many-to-one relation as part of their primary key?

If so, please open a JIRA, it will be easy to fix

Yes, I do have non-audited Entities with a ManyToOne in the PK object.  I've created JIRA HHH-4928 for this issue.

Thanks.

I've fixed the issue in trunk. I also deployed a snapshot, so you can try the 1.2.3-hibernate-3.3-SNAPSHOT version.

Just a word of warning before you try: the target-relation-not-audited mode will only work if the target entity has a "supported" id, that is, if that entity uses a many-to-one relation in its primary key, it won't work.

The snapshot version does deploy correctly.  What is the timeline for the next release version?

Thanks.

Along with Hibernate 3.5 release, which should be quite soon (a month or so), as it's now in CR1 stage.
