I have a scenario were I need to query a table that has a One-To-One as part of the ID. I want to speed up the query by not performing the join that automatically occurs. In the past I've had to take the columns that map to the One-To-One and create readonly properties and query off them. Is there a better way to prevent this join?

Examples

[code]
class A {
@Id
@OneToOne
@JoinColumns({
@JoinColumn(name = "prefix", referencedColumnName = "prefix"),
@JoinColumn(name = "number", referencedColumnName = "number")
})
private B b;

@Column(name = "prefix", nullable = false, length = 3, insertable = false, updatable = false)
private String prefix;

@Column(name = "number", nullable = false, length = 10, insertable = false, updatable = false)
private String number;
}
[/code]

Just set LAZY on the @OneToOne association:
