HI I have a requirement where a class has two keys..one key is an identifier--manually assigned while inserting and the other one is a sequence value for the next value of that column with that identifier in that table.


So I tried doing like this
<composite-id>
<key-property name="XXX" type="XXX" length="XX">
<column name="matching-name" not-null="XX"/>
</key-property>

<key-property name="seq" type="XXX" length="XX">
<column name="matching-table_name_SEQ" not-null="XX"/>
</key-property>

</composite-id>

Now i need to make the second key(the highlighted-one) as a generator.. I tried to insert the generator class element inside <key-property> But it is not accepting...Can any one suggest me how to make the second as a sequence generator.

Thank you very much.

The generator only works for identifiers. You can use a @Generated column and set the column value during insert with a database trigger.
