No CMR support with JBoss 3.2 get-generated-keys

[bobo1025]

org.jboss.ejb.plugins.cmp.jdbc.metadata.JDBCRelationM
etaData throws a DeploymentException with the
errormessage "Atleast one role of a foreign-key mapped
relationship must have key fields" when <primkey-field>
is missing in ejb-jar.xml.

I am using 'get-generated-keys' method to use database auto-increment column as the primary key. By requirement, no <primkey-field> cat be inserted in ejb-jar.xml. There is no way to deploy the EJB jar file.

Hi

I had nearly the same problem. I use an unknown primary key and a key-generator (at the bottom you can see the relevant code). The trick there is to include a <field-name> Element into the <unknown-pk> Element, than you can reference this PK in a relationship :

<key-fields>
<key-field>
<field-name>somePK</field-name>
<column-name>someFK</column-name>
</key-field>
</key-fields>

I hope this helps.
