I have a situation where I am working with EJB3 and a legacy database. I have a situation where there is a many-to-many relationship between two tables A and B, defined through a third (link) table L.
我有一种情况,我正在使用EJB3和遗留数据库。我有一种情况,即两个表A和B之间存在多对多关系,通过第三个(链接)表L定义。
The complication is that the link table has other fields in it other than the PK's of tables A and B. The columns are standard timestamp and user columns to record who generated the link. These two additional columns are preventing me from defining the many-many relationship using a join table annotation, as they are not nillable and so must be populated.
复杂的是链接表除了表A和B的PK之外还有其他字段。列是标准时间戳和用户列,用于记录生成链接的人员。这两个额外的列阻止我使用连接表注释定义多对多关系,因为它们不是可填充的,因此必须填充。
Does anyone know of a way around this limitation? I could define One-to-many relationships from the link table to each of the other tables in the relationship, but this is not very elegant.
有没有人知道解决这个限制的方法?我可以定义从链接表到关系中每个其他表的一对多关系,但这不是很优雅。
Thanks,

Yes, it is but you need to make it elegant. The following super-class can be used to define arbitrary many-to-many relationship as an entity:
是的,但它需要让它变得优雅。以下超类可用于将任意多对多关系定义为实体:
@MappedSuperclass
public abstract class ModelBaseRelationship {
@Embeddable
public static class Id implements Serializable {
public Long entityId1;
public Long entityId2;
@Column(name = "ENTITY1_ID")
public Long getEntityId1() {
return entityId1;
}
@Column(name = "ENTITY2_ID")
public Long getEntityId2() {
return entityId2;
}
public Id() {
}
public Id(Long entityId1, Long entityId2) {
this.entityId1 = entityId1;
this.entityId2 = entityId2;
}
@Override
public boolean equals(Object other) {
if (other == null)
return false;
if (this == other)
return true;
if (!(other instanceof Id))
return false;
final Id that = (Id) other;
return new EqualsBuilder().append(this.entityId1, that.getEntityId1()).append(this.entityId1, that.getEntityId2()).isEquals();
}
@Override
public int hashCode() {
return new HashCodeBuilder(11, 111).append(this.entityId1).append(this.entityId2).toHashCode();
}
protected void setEntityId1(Long theEntityId1) {
entityId1 = theEntityId1;
}
protected void setEntityId2(Long theEntityId2) {
entityId2 = theEntityId2;
}
}
protected Id id = new Id();
public ModelBaseRelationship() {
super();
}
public ModelBaseRelationship(ModelBaseEntity entity1, ModelBaseEntity entity2) {
this();
this.id.entityId1 = entity1.getId();
this.id.entityId2 = entity2.getId();
setVersion(0);
}
@EmbeddedId
public Id getId() {
return id;
}
protected void setId(Id theId) {
id = theId;
}
}
The example of entity based on this super class (fragment):
基于此超类(片段)的实体示例:
@Entity(name = "myRealEntity")
@Table(name = "REAL_TABLE_NAME", uniqueConstraints = { @UniqueConstraint(columnNames = {
"FIRST_FK_ID", "SECOND_FK_ID" }) })
@AttributeOverrides( {
@AttributeOverride(name = "entityId1", column = @Column(name = "FIRST_FK_ID")),
@AttributeOverride(name = "entityId2", column = @Column(name = "SECOND_FK_ID"))
})
public class ModelBaseRelationshipReferenceImpl extends ModelBaseRelationship {
private Entity1OfManyToManyRelationship entity1;
private Entity2OfManyToManyRelationship entity2;
...
@ManyToOne
@JoinColumn(name = "FIRST_FK_ID", insertable = false, updatable = false)
public Entity1OfManyToManyRelationship getEntity1OfManyToManyRelationship() {
return entity1;
}
@ManyToOne
@JoinColumn(name = "SECOND_FK_ID", insertable = false, updatable = false)
public Entity2OfManyToManyRelationship getEntity2OfManyToManyRelationship () {
return entity2;
}
