When using the GeneratedValue annotation, Hibernate is generating a null ID.

Why is this??

I have a simple 'Artist' class with an id marked as such:

@Id
@GeneratedValue(strategy = GenerationType.AUTO)
@Column(name="ID")
private Long id;

INFO - Hibernate EntityManager 3.2.0.CR2
INFO - Hibernate Annotations 3.2.0.CR2
INFO - Hibernate 3.2 cr4

Running a simple test:

tx.begin();
manager.persist(artist);
tx.commit();

Gives a null for the GeneratedID:

Hibernate: insert into ARTIST (ID, name, CGR_ID) values (null, ?, ?)

becasue your DB use an identity column by default. Please use the standard response next time, it would have shown your DB.

Ya, I forgot that bit. Sorry.

DB is H2.

I am not familiar with identity columns - what do info do I need to provide to get that to work?


Thanks!

artist.getId() != null after commit.
