JavaFX BooleanProperty and Hibernate

Question

I'm trying to add JavaFX BooleanPropety to my model which is persisted by Hibernate but I'm getting the following error.

Caused by: org.hibernate.MappingException: Could not determine type for: javafx.beans.property.BooleanProperty.

JavaFX StringProperty persisting just fine so I'm confused a little bit.

My model class is the following

@Entity
public class Currency {
    private String uuid;
    private BooleanProperty isDefault = new SimpleBooleanProperty();
    private StringProperty name = new SimpleStringProperty();
    private StringProperty code = new SimpleStringProperty();

    @Id
    @GeneratedValue(generator = "uuid")
    @GenericGenerator(name = "uuid", strategy = "uuid2")
    @Column(name = "id")
    public String getUuid() {
        return uuid;
    }

    public void setUuid(String uuid) {
        this.uuid = uuid;
    }

    public String getName() {
        return name.get();
    }

    public void setName(String name) {
        this.name.set(name);
    }

    public String getCode() {
        return code.get();
    }

    public void setCode(String code) {
        this.code.set(code);
    }


    public boolean getIsDefault() {
        return isDefault.get();
    }

    public void setIsDefault(boolean isDefault) {
        this.isDefault.set(isDefault);
    }

    public StringProperty nameProperty() {
        return name;
    }

    public StringProperty codeProperty() {
        return code;
    }

    public BooleanProperty isDefaultProperty(){
        return isDefault;
    }
}

You should consider adding the code on how exactly you are using it — ItachiUchiha, Jan 16 '15 at 08:17

Renaming

private BooleanProperty isDefault;

to

private BooleanProperty default;

solves the problem. The reason is that naming convention for boolean fields is quite different in java. That's explained in the following link

I'm not quite sure why that works (though I have some guesses). I would recommend annotating the class with `@Access(AccessType.PROPERTY)`. This forces the ORM to call the get/set methods to access fields, instead of trying to access the fields via reflection. Have a look at [this blog](http://asipofjava.blogspot.com/2013/05/javafx-properties-in-jpa-entity-classes.html) and [this blog](http://www.marshall.edu/genomicjava/2014/05/09/one-bean-to-bind-them-all/) – James_D Jan 16 '15 at 13:07
