In JPA, can I map an Entity to a table where attributes of the entity are persisted across multiple rows?
Basically, can I map a class like this:
public Document {
String id;
String title;
String author;
String size;
}
To a table like
CREATE TABLE DOC_METADATA
(
DOC_ID NUMBER,
ATTR_NAME VARCHAR,
ATTR_VALUE VARCHAR
);
With content like
DOC_ID | ATTR_NAME | ATTR_VALUE
1 "title" "Alice in wonderland"
1 "author" "Lewis Carroll"
1 "size" "500kb"
2 "title" "Winnie the pooh"
2 "author" "A. A. Milne"
2 "size" "600kb"
No it's impossible. Your class Document is a domain class (java presentation of your table in db). When you try to create table from domain class so will be created a table with such fields like in your domain class.
I think you need to take look at what JPA is. Take a look at
