mixing joined and single table inheritance and querying for all objects

Question

I have a webapp that is working with the following configuration (I changed the entity names):

@Entity
@Inheritance(strategy = InheritanceType.JOINED)
@Table         


        

Answer 1

Did you try hibernateTemplate.find("from Mammal") ?

Your find query needs to be in terms of JPA entities not table names.

BTW tables are typically named in the singular - it generally makes complex queries read a bit better - e.g. WHERE chicken.id = egg.id
