JPA validation problem: Entity 'X' has no Id or EmbeddedId

Question

Which, I couldn't quite figure out why Eclipse Galileo's JPA validator would say so, as my class 'X' clearly had an @Id annotation on the primary key "uniqueId". The error would disappear if I commented out the @Basic annotation line, but that didn't quite make sense. Anyway, attaching snippet below from memory:

@Entity
class X {
...
@Id
@Basic(optional=false)
@Column(name="someUniqueId", unique=false)
String uniqueId;
...
}

Is this a bug, or is there a JPA standard which I'm not aware of on the use of annotations?

Answer 1

You have here a similar case which may suggest a case or type issue.

But as mentioned here, I would rather bet on bug 217192 (which can be comared with the "non-bug" 208249)

You can also specify which version of eclipse and Dali JPA Tool you are using.

Answer 2

@EmbeddedId
String uniqueId;
