I'm having really weird issues where I can run all my tests in Idea with no problem (using same classpath/config/etc via Maven reloaded) and everything is fine. When I attempt to run the tests in Maven proper (i.e. mvn install) I'm having this assertion issue. Any help would be appreciated!

Hibernate version:
3.2.2.ga + 3.2.1.ga (annotations)

Mapping documents:

Code between sessionFactory.openSession() and session.close():
App blows up before sessionFactory is open...

I am having the same issue and am wondering if a solution was ever discovered for this issue. Thank you in advance.

I am having the same problem after I added a new root class to my class hierarchy and annotated the new root with @MappedSuperclass.

The code in question seems to be in method getElementsToProcess in class:

http://viewvc.jboss.org/cgi-bin/viewvc.cgi/hibernate/annotations/trunk/src/java/org/hibernate/cfg/AnnotationBinder.java?revision=14761&view=markup&pathrev=14761

The code looks like:

assert !inheritanceState.isEmbeddableSuperclass;

Can someone from hibernate team please comment on why this assertion is there?

Does hibernate not support the @MappedSuperclass annotation? If it is supported then what condition could cause the above assertion to fail?

If it is a bug then please let us know a workaround, where is the issue logged and if not logged let us know to file one.

Thanks for your help.

Hi all,

I have bumped into the same problem as well.

My configuration:

Maven version: 2.0.8
Java version: 1.6.0_04
OS name: "linux" version: "2.6.24-19-generic" arch: "i386" Family: "unix"


I have developed a number of unit tests that use spring framework, hibernate and hibernate-annotations. All worked fine until I started using the @mappedsuperclass annotation. If I run the unit tests using Eclipse (Ganymede) with the built-in JUnit runner, everything runs perfectly fine. However, if I run the tests using mvn test from the console, then I'm getting the same error as stated on the previous post.

From my pom.xml:

<dependency>
<groupId>org.springframework</groupId>
<artifactId>spring</artifactId>
<version>2.5.5</version>
</dependency>

<dependency>
<groupId>org.hibernate</groupId>

<version>3.3.1.GA</version>
</dependency>

Any help on debugging/solving the issue would be highly appreciated.

If you have an @Entity annotation on your mapped super class try removing it.

I am having the same problem too. Just want to know if anyone has found a solution to this issue.

I am developing an application using Spring and Hibernate (Hibernate core 3.3.1 and Annotations 3.4.0), and have written some DAO and unit test for them (using JUnit 4).

I can run the tests in Eclipse without any problem.

However, I got the same "AssertionError" when run "mvn test" in DOS prompt.

My entity classes are like this:

Base class:
@MappedSuperclass
public class BaseEntity implements Identifiable, Serializable {

private static final long serialVersionUID = 1L;

@Id
@GeneratedValue(generator = "hibernate-uuid")
@org.hibernate.annotations.GenericGenerator(
name = "hibernate-uuid",
strategy = "uuid"
)
@Column(name = "id")
private String id;

public String getId() {
return id;
}

public void setId(String id) {
this.id = id;
}

}

Entity class:
@Entity
@Table(name="BATCH_JOB_INSTANCE")
@NamedQueries(value = {
@NamedQuery(name = "BatchJob.getByJobName",
query = "from BatchJob b where jobName=? order by b.id desc")
})
public class BatchJob implements Serializable {

private static final long serialVersionUID = 1L;

@Id
@Column(name="JOB_INSTANCE_ID")
private Long id;

@Column(name="JOB_NAME")
private String jobName;

@Column(name="JOB_KEY")
private String jobKey;

@OneToMany(cascade=CascadeType.ALL, fetch=FetchType.EAGER)
@JoinColumn(name="JOB_INSTANCE_ID")
private Set<BatchJobExecution> batchJobExecutions;

public Long getId() {
return id;
}

public void setId(Long id) {
this.id = id;
}

public String getJobName() {
return jobName;
}

public void setJobName(String jobName) {
this.jobName = jobName;
}

public String getJobKey() {
return jobKey;
}

public void setJobKey(String jobKey) {
this.jobKey = jobKey;
}

public Set<BatchJobExecution> getBatchJobExecutions() {
return batchJobExecutions;
}

}

I just can't figure out why it fail in Maven while success in Eclipse.

Any advice or clue is much appreciated.

I also ran across this problem and was able to disable runtime assertions during a maven test by specifying -disableassertions in the <argLine> maven plugin configuration element. In my research I found that java runtime assertions are normally, by default, disabled (incuding running in JUnit), but they are enabled by default in maven.

The assertion in our case is due to our including a class with the @MappedSuperclass annotation in an array of annotated classes as an argument to AnnotationSessionFactoryBean.setAnnotatedClasses(). The class we included actually has both the @MappedSuperclass and @Table annotations. According to the annotation javadocs, a mapped superclass "has no separate table defined." We are evaluating which of the two annotations are correct for our class.

I have the same problem with @MappedSuperclass and @Entity but no @Table annotation.
removing the @Entity is not an option for me.

adding this to my POM does the trick :


but still I would like to know what is wrong with having both @MappedSuperclass and @Entity
can someone explain please?
