Interface between two related JPA entities
- by OpenSource
The scenario is as below (tables shown)
Delivery table
------
id channelId type
10 100 fax
20 200 email
Fax table
----
id number
100 1234567
101 1234598
Email table
-----
id email
200 [email protected]
201 [email protected]
basically a one to one relationship between the delivery and the channel entity but since each concrete channel(fax, email) has different members I want to create a generic interface (channel) between the two entities and use it for the @OneToOne relationship. Seems to me a simple scenario where lot of you might have already gone through but I'm unable to succeed. I tried putting that targetEntity thing but no use. Still says "delivery references an unknown entity"
Any ideas? thanks in advance
