EJB3: Mapping Persistent Objects Example 5

by admin ~ October 21, 2008

Following are the example from the chapter “Mapping Persistent Objects” from the book “Enterprise JavaBeans 3.0″ by Bill Bruke & Richard Monson-Haefel. This example I have tried it out on JBoss AS 5.0.0.CR1. I have used Postgresql as the database. And I have used eclipse WTP as IDE.

Example 5: Embeddable Classes

This example shows the use of @javax.persistence.Embedded annotation to map a persistent property that is a nonentity class.
