All ,


Reference : EJB3.0 in action (Manning)

I am trying to understand the follwoing line



Annotations used with a setter method are ignored by the persistence provider for property-based access.



Any ideas ?

I under stand that the foolowing code also from the same book is Property based persistence

Annotations should be applied to the getter methods when using property-based access. If you apply an annotation to a setter method, the annotation is ignored by the persistence provider.

Your code is using field-based access. Note that the @Id annotation (the only required annotation) is used on a field and not on a getter method of a property.

Akhil,

I think Sergio cleared your doubt. I was in same confusion when i started that chapter but if you just turn few pages you will understand that concept.
if you still have doubt do post here i will try to clear.
