I create two classes with many to many relation between them, like as below:
@Entity
@Table(name = FoodEntity.TABLE_NAME)
public class FoodEntity extends BaseEntity<Long> {
public static final String TABLE_NAME = "T_FOOD";
@ManyToMany
@JoinTable(
name = "T_FOOD_FOODCATEGORY",
joinColumns = { @JoinColumn(name = "FOOD_ID") },
inverseJoinColumns = { @JoinColumn(name = "FOOD_CATEGORY_ID") })
private Set<FoodCategoryEntity> categories;
public Set<FoodCategoryEntity> getCategories() {
return categories;
}
public void setCategories(Set<FoodCategoryEntity> categories) {
this.categories = categories;
}
@Id
@GeneratedValue(strategy = GenerationType.AUTO)
@Column(name = "FOOD_ID", nullable = false)
@Override
public Long getId() {
return id;
}
@Override
public void setId(Long id) {
this.id = id;
}
}
and :
@Entity
@Table(name = FoodCategoryEntity.TABLE_NAME)
public class FoodCategoryEntity extends BaseEntity<Long> {
public static final String TABLE_NAME = "T_FOOD_CATEGORY";
@ManyToMany(mappedBy = "categories")
private Set<FoodEntity> foods;
public Set<FoodEntity> getFoods() {
return foods;
}
public void setFoods(Set<FoodEntity> foods) {
this.foods = foods;
}
@Id
@GeneratedValue(strategy = GenerationType.AUTO)
@Column(name = "FOOD_CATEGORY_ID", nullable = false)
@Override
public Long getId() {
return id;
}
@Override
public void setId(Long id) {
this.id = id;
}
}
but when I test this relation with junit,spring and hibernate, I get below exception:
Caused by: org.hibernate.MappingException: Could not determine type for: java.util.Set, at table: T_FOOD, for columns: [org.hibernate.mapping.Column(categories)]

I checked annotation package references, and all ID column names, but all of them are correct. point : I also use the HSQLDB database whose storage location it is a file.
