Hibernate @IdClass @EmbeddedID相关注解

Hibernate Annotations

Mapping composite primary keys and foreign keys to composite primary keys：

http://docs.jboss.org/hibernate/annotations/3.5/reference/en/html_single/#d0e2177

引用Composite primary keys use a embedded class as the primary key representation, so you‘d use the @Id and @Embeddable annotations. Alternatively, you can use the @EmbeddedId annotation. Note that the dependent class has to be serializable and implements
equals()/hashCode(). You can also use @IdClass.

@Entity
public class RegionalArticle implements Serializable {

    @Id
    public RegionalArticlePk getPk() { ... }
}

@Embeddable
public class RegionalArticlePk implements Serializable { ... }       

or alternatively

@Entity
public class RegionalArticle implements Serializable {

    @EmbeddedId
    public RegionalArticlePk getPk() { ... }
}

public class RegionalArticlePk implements Serializable { ... }

hibernate的annotation的文档中提供了三种方法

　　1 将组件类注解为@Embeddable,并将组件的属性注解为@Id

　　2 将组件的属性注解为@EmbeddedId (方便)

　　3 将类注解为@IdClass,并将该实体中所有属于主键的属性都注解为@Id(符合编程习惯)

主键类需要序列化(考虑到可能会将数据读写到虚拟内存中),需要重写hashcode()和equals()方法,因为要对联合主键进行比较.
