Mapping composite primary and foreign keys with JPA

Question

I have two tables: A and B. Both have a composite primary key. The PK of table B is also a foreign key to the primary key of table A.

When I try to get an instance of class that maps table B I get this exception:

org.hibernate.TypeMismatchException

The app is an Spring Boot application. The source code is available at Github

Code source of Table B is:

@Entity @Table(name="usuarios")
public class UsuarioEntity implements Serializable {

    private static final long serialVersionUID = 1L;

    @EmbeddedId @AttributeOverrides( {
        @AttributeOverride(name="perTipoUsu", column=@Column(name="per_tipo_usu", nullable=false) ), 
        @AttributeOverride(name="perCodUsu", column=@Column(name="per_cod_usu", nullable=false) ) } )
    private UsuarioPKEntity pk = null;

   @OneToOne @PrimaryKeyJoinColumn
   private PersonaRelEnity personaRel = null;

   private String nombre;

   ....
}

Code source of Table A is:

@Entity @Table(name="persona_rel")
public class PersonaRelEnity implements Serializable {

    private static final long serialVersionUID = 1L;

    @EmbeddedId
    private PersonaRelPKEntity id;

    private String persona;

   ....
}

Both classes are at package: com.cairone.ejemplo01.entities

The complete log output is:

This is the relevant part:

It would be helpful if you included the source for your @Embeddables, UsuarioPKEntity and PersonaRelPKEntity. — Brian Vosburgh
Thanks Brian. The @Embeddable is an JPA annotation and th source code is available at [github.com/diegocairone/eiva-ejemplos] — Diego Cairone

This is a "derived identity", where the primary key of one entity is derived from the primary key of another, related, entity.

I have not encountered anything exactly like this relationship, but try this:

@Entity
@Table(name="persona_rel")
public class PersonaRelEnity implements Serializable {

    @EmbeddedId
    private PersonaRelPKEntity pk;

    ...
}

@Embeddable
public class PersonaRelPKEntity implements Serializable {

    private static final long serialVersionUID = 1L;

    @Column(name="per_tipo")
    private Integer perTipo;

    @Column(name="per_cod")
    private Integer perCod;

    ...
}

@Entity
@Table(name="usuarios")
public class UsuarioEntity implements Serializable {

    @EmbeddedId
    private UsuarioEntityPK id;

    @OneToOne
    @MapsId("personaRelPKEntity")
    @JoinColumns({
        @JoinColumn(name="per_tipo_usu", referencedColumnName="per_tipo"),
        @JoinColumn(name="per_cod_usu", referencedColumnName="per_cod")
    })
    private PersonaRelEnity personaRelEntity = null;

    ...
}

@Embeddable
public class UsuarioEntityPK implements Serializable {

    // matches the PK type of PersonaRelEnity
    private PersonaRelPKEntity personaRelPKEntity;

    ...
}

Derived identities are discussed in the JPA 2.1 spec, section 2.4.1.

Side note: There is a typo in the class name PersonaRelEnity (i.e. Entity is missing its first t). :-)
