Problem in Extending a POJO

[Cheenath Ajay]

Dear all,

I am using two POJOs in my application, One is User and another is Salary.
And i am extending User in my Salary POJO, But one i try to query something in User POJO Hibernate throwing some errors like Property of User POJO is not there in Salary POJO.

Like userName is not a property of Salary POJO.

Why this happening, Is there any solution for this?

Thanks in Advance.

Cheenth.

Could you post your mappings and the exception message?

Salary is-a User?

I will try to explain more on my problem,

I need to represnt my child tables as child classes. Here salary table is a child table of users table. Thats the reason why i am extending UserPOJO in my SalaryPOJO.

It is working fine with all other CRUD operations expect using a select with conditions.

I would like to create an API for an application where all child table mapping POJOs will be extending its parent table POJO.

Last time i tried with <join-subclass>
but while inserting a record in child class(using session.save(Object)) its trying to insert corresponding records in its parent table.


Say while inserting a record in salary its trying to insert a corresponding record in its parent(Users) and since key for that User record is already existing its showing dupicate entry exception.

Can i avoid insertion of parent record while inserting a child record, if there is a record already existing the same primary key??

Please help me to solve my issue.

Thanking you all,,

Cheenath.
