Well I am a newbie and as far as I know I cannot have a class that describes an entity and where instances are used as Embedded data.
Why this specification?
I have precisely the case :

Code:

@Entity
class Data {
   //members
}

@Entity 
class DataHistory {
   // information about deprecation
   @Embedded
   private Data deprecatedData ;
}

Here you just cannot use a OnetoOne relationship: deprecated data should not lay in the same table as viable data!
Do I have to copy everything from Data into DataHistory? (I hate the idea ....)
thanks for any suggestion.
