MappedSuperclass – Change SequenceGenerator in Subclass

by

Yes, it is possible. You can override the default generator name with the @SequenceGenerator annotation.

  • Base class
    @MappedSuperclass
    public abstract class PersistentEntity implements Serializable
    {
        private static final long serialVersionUID = 1L;

        @Id
        @GeneratedValue(strategy = GenerationType.SEQUENCE, generator = "default_gen")
        protected Long id = 0L;

        public Long getId()
        {
            return id;
        }

        public void setId(Long id)
        { 
            this.id = id;
        }
    }

  • Sequence (SQL)

    create sequence role_seq;

  • Derived class

    @Entity
    @Table(name = "role")
    @SequenceGenerator(name = "default_gen", sequenceName = "role_seq", allocationSize = 1)
    public class Role extends PersistentEntity implements Serializable
    {
        private static final long serialVersionUID = 1L;

        @NotNull
        @Size(max = 32)
        private String name;

        public String getName()
        {
             return name;
        }

        public void setName(String name)
        {
             this.name = name;
        }   
    }
  • This approach worked fine in Hibernate 4.1.x, but it didn’t in EclipseLink 2.x.

edit

  • As per the comment, it seems to be working with EclipseLink 2.6.1-RC1.
