We are moving to Hibernate 3.2CR1 and Annotations 3.1 beta 9.

Somebody already experienced the following exception :

"

Cheers in advance

Can you provide a minimal runnable testcase that reproduce the problem and post it to JIRA?
Thanks.

Sorry for not answering. I've tried with a subset of the classes and the error is not there. It's actually not the classes I pasted. I can't send you the whole set of classes (@ issues), I'll try next week but we're a bit overloaded.
