I do single mapping for my database,
and specify the annotation as blow
@DiscriminatorColumn(name = "TYPE", discriminatorType = DiscriminatorType.STRING)

my question is : can we get the value when we doing codeing?
@DiscriminatorColumn(name = "TYPE", discriminatorType = DiscriminatorType.STRING)
class A {
....
}

@DiscriminatorValue("B")
class B extend A{
..
}

in the database, i can see there is a column "type", and holding value there,

but how can i get the its value,

is it that there are anyway i can get the value like this b.getType()???

thanks .

When you set the DiscriminatorValue for it - that is the value for type.

A good idea would be to create an @Transient type and set it in your constructor to "B"
