If I mark a field as transient but supply getters and setters :-

@Transient Integer localFilterId;
public void setLocalFilterId( Integer filterId) { this.localFilterId = filterId; }
public Integer getLocalFilterId() { return localFilterId; }

I get the following runtime error :-

10:13:20,331 ERROR JDBCExceptionReporter:234 - ORA-00904: "FILTERCLAU1_"."LOCALFILTERID": invalid identifier

If however I remove the getters/setters and make the transient field public it works ??

@Transient public Integer localFilterId;

Any ideas why this is happening.
Thanks,
Chris.
