I use Hibernate 4.3.8.FINAL and have the following model, in which the Department has many Workers, and the Employee can be a Manager.
The essence of the employee:
@Entity
@Table(name = "employee", schema = "payroll")
@Inheritance(strategy = InheritanceType.JOINED)
public class Employee
{
@Id
private Long id;
@Basic(optional = false)
@Column(name = "name")
private String name;
@JoinColumn(name = "department_id", referencedColumnName = "id")
@ManyToOne(optional = false, fetch = FetchType.LAZY)
private Department department;
}
Manager Essence:
@Entity
@Table(name = "manager", schema = "payroll")
@Inheritance(strategy = InheritanceType.JOINED)
@PrimaryKeyJoinColumn(name = "employee_id", referencedColumnName = "id")
public class Manager extends Employee
{
@Basic(optional = false)
@Column(name = "car_allowance")
private boolean carAllowance;
}
The essence of the unit:
@NamedEntityGraph(
name = "Graph.Department.FetchManagers",
includeAllAttributes = false,
attributeNodes = {
@NamedAttributeNode(value = "name"),
@NamedAttributeNode(value = "employees", subgraph = "FetchManagers.Subgraph.Managers")
},
subgraphs = {
@NamedSubgraph(
name = "FetchManagers.Subgraph.Managers",
type = Employee.class,
attributeNodes = {
@NamedAttributeNode(value = "name")
}
),
@NamedSubgraph(
name = "FetchManagers.Subgraph.Managers",
type = Manager.class,
attributeNodes = {
@NamedAttributeNode(value = "carAllowance"),
}
)
}
)
@Entity
@Table(name = "department", schema = "payroll")
public class Department
{
@Id
private Long id;
@Basic(optional = false)
@Column(name = "name")
private String name;
@OneToMany(cascade = CascadeType.ALL, mappedBy = "department", fetch = FetchType.LAZY)
private Set<Employee> employees;
}
As shown in the entity of the unit, I am trying to create @NamedSubgraph, which downloads all employees and also retrieves Manager.carAllowance. However, I get the following error:
Unable to locate Attribute with the the given name [carAllowance] on this ManagedType [com.nemea.hydra.model.test.Employee]
From my point of view, @ NamedSubgraph.type should be used to indicate the attributes of the subclass of the object to be extracted. Is it possible that Hibernate is ignoring the type = Manager.class attribute of the @NamedSubgraph annotation, or am I missing something?
