The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

Problem with Hibernate composite key mapping

Asked by assyst in J2EE

Tags: hibernate, sequence

Hi,

I'm trying the Hibernate mapping between two tables - AGENCY and OFFICER_AGENCY.

The AGENCY table has the composite primary key which consists of agency_code and sub_agency_code. This is defined as a composite Java object AgencyPK.

The table AGENCY holds a one-to-many relationship with OFFICER_AGENCY, which has int_ofcr2agcy_id as the primary key and has foreign key reference to the agency_code and sub_agency_code fields of table AGENCY.

The following exception is thrown when I try to map the relationships:

Foreign key (FKBB3E234E2C0B82A3 OFFICER_AGENCY [INT_OFCR2AGCY_ID])) must have same number of columns as the referenced primary key (AGENCY [AGENCY_CODE,SUB_AGENCY_CODE])
org.hibernate.MappingException: Foreign key (FKBB3E234E2C0B82A3 O FFICER_AGENCY [INT_OFCR2AGCY_ID])) must have same number of columns as the referenced primary key (AGENCY [AGENCY_CODE,SUB_AGENCY_CODE])

at org.hibernate.cfg.Configuration.secondPassCompile(Configuration.java:1052)
at org.hibernate.cfg.Configuration.buildSessionFactory(Configuration.java:1168)
at FirstExample.main(FirstExample.java:23)


This is the mapping used:

// Agency.hbm.xml

<hibernate-mapping>
<class name="test.bean.Agency" schema="ECITATION" table="AGENCY">

<composite-id name="agencyPK" class="test.bean.AgencyPK">
<key-property column="AGENCY_CODE" length="4" name="agencyCode" type="java.lang.String"/>
<key-property column="SUB_AGENCY_CODE" length="4" name="subAgencyCode" type="java.lang.String"/>
</composite-id>

<property column="AGENCY_NAME" length="50" name="agencyName" type="java.lang.String"/>
<property column="AGENCY_TYPE" length="50" name="agencyType" type="java.lang.String"/>

<set name="officerAgency" lazy="true" inverse="true">
<key column="INT_OFCR2AGCY_ID"></key>
<one-to-many class="test.bean.OfficerAgency"/>
</set>
</class>
</hibernate-mapping>

----------------------------------------------------------------------------
// OfficerAgency.hbm.xml

<hibernate-mapping>
<class name="test.bean.OfficerAgency" schema="ECITATION" table="OFFICER_AGENCY">

<id column="INT_OFCR2AGCY_ID" name="intOfcr2agcyId" type="java.lang.Long">
<generator class="sequence"/>
</id>

<property column="AGENCY_CODE" length="4" name="agencyCode" not-null="true" type="java.lang.String"/>
<property column="SUB_AGENCY_CODE" length="4" name="subAgencyCode" not-null="true" type="java.lang.String"/>
<property column="START_DATE" length="7" name="startDate" type="java.util.Date"/>
<property column="END_DATE" length="7" name="endDate" type="java.util.Date"/>

<many-to-one name="agencyPK" class="us.md.state.courts.bean.AgencyPK" insert="false" update="false" not-null="true">
</many-to-one>

</class>
</hibernate-mapping>

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

How can define the relationship in Hibernate? Could someone please help?

Thanks in advance,
Jenny
