I am a newbie in hibernate and was playing around with it. For an unique field in an entity I am setting @GeneratedValue annotation to it. Suppose I have two entities , user and company and both having an unique id with @GeneratedValue annotation . When I save both the entities using hibernate session factory , the id generated are 1 and 2 respectively , where it should be 1 each for both entities. The next time when i save both , id generated are 3 and 4 . So my guess is that , @GeneratedValue is working in db level and not table level. How to make it table level ?
Adding some codes and configs.
User entity
@Entity @Table(name="user") public class User { @Id @GeneratedValue @Column(name = "id") private Integer id; } Company entity
@Entity @Table(name="company") public class Company { @Id @GeneratedValue @Column(name = "id") private Integer id; } Saving using hibernate session
Session session = sessionFactory.getCurrentSession(); User user = new User(); session.save(user); Company company = new Company(); session.save(company); Result
mysql> select * from user;
+-----+ | id | +-----+ | 234 | +-----+
mysql> select * from company;
+-----+ | id | +-----+ | 235 | +-----+
For the records , I am using hibernate-jpa-2.1-api ( 1.0.0.Draft-16 ) with hibernate 5.
