如何在 Hibernate 的复合主键中自动增加一个 Id？

Question

I have a table with a composite primary key - groupId and batchId . Entity class looks like:

@Entity(name="EMPLOYEE")
public class Employee {

    @EmbeddedId
    private EmployeePK employeePK;

    //Other columns and their getters and setters
    //Getters and setters
}

Composite PK:

@Embeddable
public class EmployeePK implements Serializable {

    private long groupId;
    private long batchId;

    @GeneratedValue(strategy=GenerationType.AUTO)
    public long getBatchId() {
        return batchId;
    }

    public void setBatchId(long batchId) {
        this.batchId = batchId;
    }
}

I'm trying to auto increment the batch Id, for a new record to be inserted.

//For saving
Employee employee = new Employee();
EmployeePK pk = new IRAmendmentBatchesPK();
pk.setBatchId(0);
pk.setGroupId(4388);

Employee employee = employeeRepository.save(employee);


//Repository Interface
public interface EmployeeRepository extends JpaRepository<Employee, EmployeePK>{

}

I'm explicity setting batchId as 0, in hopes that the auto-incremented value is set in the batchId during save(insert). As of now, this code will save a new entry with batchId as 0.

Answer 1

As I have mentioned in comment, I have used @IdClass it worked while I have tried in hsqldb in-memory database, but failed to work in mysql .

Please note I am using hibernate 5

You may give a try with oracle, I couldn't recollect but it should work. But please check for if any drawbacks with the approach if any.

The below is the error I get while I try with MySql

I have tried with accepted answer in the post Hibernate insert failing when embedded key contains identity column on SQL Server but no luck with it.

Answer 2

@Embeddable
public class EmployeePK implements Serializable {

    private long groupId;
    @GeneratedValue(strategy = GenerationType.AUTO)
    private long batchId;

   
    public long getBatchId() {
        return batchId;
    }

    public void setBatchId(long batchId) {
        this.batchId = batchId;
    }

//implements equals and hashcode

}

Answer 3

It's precised in the Javadoc of oracle that is not possible and not in the spec: https://docs.oracle.com/javaee/6/api/javax/persistence/GeneratedValue.html

Use of the GeneratedValue annotation is not supported for derived primary keys.

And I found nothing about how to do it with build in tools. So you need to do yours own implementation of that.
