Hibernate version: 3.1

Mapping documents:

<id name="itemId" type="long"
column="ITEM_ID">

</id>

I am using default id generator 'assigned'.

Name and version of the database you are using:

Oracle 9




I am using the default id generation mechanism and setting the id myself to the Item Object before saving it. But, the actual id which is getting inserted to the database is totally different?

Is there something else am I missing, that I should have configured?

Thanks

Using assigned means there is no generator thus the value will not be changed. You have not shown enough information to determine if the maping is correct. I am assuming you don't have database triggers that might be changing it (which would be bad).
