Hi all,
I have a table A and a table B. The table B has a column named EVENT
and a foreign key on table A.
I used the Eclipse GUI method by JbossTools 3.0.0.CR1 on Seam 2.1.1.GA to generate the entities (New\Seam generate entities).
When Seam-gen generate the entities, the AHome EntityHome has the following method:
public List<Event> getEvents() {
...
}
This method cannot be compiled because a method with the same name is already defined in one of the parent class but the return type is not the same (i.e. in org.jboss.seam.framework.Controller: protected org.jboss.seam.core.Events getEvents() ).
To solve this problem, I see two solutions:
- rename the AHome.getEvents() into AHome.getEventsForCurrentInstance()
- change the property name in the seam-gen.reveng.xml file from
EVENT
to something like EVENT2
The first solution would be the simpliest one as I only need to change a method name when there is a compile error (but I need to do it every time the EntityHome is re-created).
Is there some automatic solution around to prevent that kind of errors (e.g. in Seam-gen configuration)?
For example, thinking about a reserved property name list which contain the prohibited names of all properties in the same case. For the Controller class, it would be:
- event => getEvents()
- facesMessage => getFacesMessages()
- message => getMessages()
- ...
Best
