<div class="block">Used to override the mapping of a <code>Basic</code> (whether
explicit or default) property or field or <code>Id</code> property or
field.
<p> May be applied to an entity that extends a mapped superclass or
to an embedded field or property to override a basic mapping or id
mapping defined by the mapped superclass or embeddable class (or
embeddable class of one of its attributes).
<p> May be applied to an element collection containing instances of
an embeddable class or to a map collection whose key and/or value
is an embeddable class. When <code>AttributeOverride</code> is
applied to a map, "<code>key.</code>" or "<code>value.</code>" must
be used to prefix the name of the attribute that is being
overridden in order to specify it as part of the map key or map
value.
<p> To override mappings at multiple levels of embedding, a dot (".")
notation form must be used in the <code>name</code> element to indicate an
attribute within an embedded attribute. The value of each identifier
used with the dot notation is the name of the respective embedded
field or property.
<p> If <code>AttributeOverride</code> is not specified, the column
is mapped the same as in the original mapping.
<pre>
Example 1:
&#064;MappedSuperclass
public class Employee {
&#064;Id protected Integer id;
&#064;Version protected Integer version;
protected String address;
public Integer getId() { ... }
public void setId(Integer id) { ... }
public String getAddress() { ... }
public void setAddress(String address) { ... }
}
&#064;Entity
&#064;AttributeOverride(name="address", column=&#064;Column(name="ADDR"))
public class PartTimeEmployee extends Employee {
// address field mapping overridden to ADDR
protected Float wage();
public Float getHourlyWage() { ... }
public void setHourlyWage(Float wage) { ... }
}
Example 2:
&#064;Embeddable public class Address {
protected String street;
protected String city;
protected String state;
&#064;Embedded protected Zipcode zipcode;
}
&#064;Embeddable public class Zipcode {
protected String zip;
protected String plusFour;
}
&#064;Entity public class Customer {
&#064;Id protected Integer id;
protected String name;
&#064;AttributeOverrides({
&#064;AttributeOverride(name="state",
column=&#064;Column(name="ADDR_STATE")),
&#064;AttributeOverride(name="zipcode.zip",
column=&#064;Column(name="ADDR_ZIP"))
})
&#064;Embedded protected Address address;
...
}
Example 3:
&#064;Entity public class PropertyRecord {
&#064;EmbeddedId PropertyOwner owner;
&#064;AttributeOverrides({
&#064;AttributeOverride(name="key.street",
column=&#064;Column(name="STREET_NAME")),
&#064;AttributeOverride(name="value.size",
column=&#064;Column(name="SQUARE_FEET")),
&#064;AttributeOverride(name="value.tax",
column=&#064;Column(name="ASSESSMENT"))
})
&#064;ElementCollection
Map&#060;Address, PropertyInfo&#062; parcels;
}
&#064;Embeddable public class PropertyInfo {
Integer parcelNumber;
Integer size;
BigDecimal tax;
