Envers not auditing properties in super class

[smc_de]

Hi!

Using Envers 3.6.2 I have the following constellation:

public class B{

     protected String b;

}

@Audited

public class A extends B{

     private String a;

}

The mapping hbm-XML of entity A contains the properties a and b. And of course, the database tables A and A_AUD contain columns for a and b.

The problem is that I want B.b to be audited as well, but I cannot annotate class B as audited. The versioned Entities I retrieve from the AuditQueries have only NULL-values for property b.

So is it only a configuration problem, or is it Envers' nature to not audit properties in a not-audited super class?

Thanks a lot for your help!

I assume B is an @Entity as well? In newer Envers versions you can specify @Audited(auditedSuperclasses = "...").

you mean @Audited(auditParents="...") from Envers 3.6.8. onwards. I'll check this out.

Thanks, Adam!
