JPA error: expecting IdClass mapping

Question

i hava a @MappedSuperclass VoBusinessObject which contains the id and version

`

@MappedSuperclass
@javax.persistence.TableGenerator(name = "VoBusinessObjectIdGenerator", table = "UidTable", pkColumnName = "object", valueColumnName = "nextHiValueColumn", pkColumnValue = "object", allocationSize = 10)
public class VoBusinessObject
    @Id
    @GeneratedValue(strategy = GenerationType.TABLE)
    public Integer getId() {
        return this.id;
    }
@Version
    @Column(name = "version", nullable = false)
    public Integer getVersion() {
        return this.version;
    }

`

All Entities extend VoBusinessObject and so they inherit id and version.

When i deploy my app to wildfly 8.2 i get

Caused by: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: expecting IdClass mapping

Then i tried to annotate all entities with

@IdClass(VoBusinessObject.class)

followed by

what is the right way to map my inheritance?

Do you add an `@Id` mapping to any subclass of `VoBusinessObject`? You might look at [the answer here](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/12930935/illegalargumentexception-expecting-idclass-mapping). — Brian Vosburgh, Feb 17 '15 at 01:53
Hello Brian, i have seen this post, but i don't have compound keys. — Heiko Wiesner, Feb 17 '15 at 09:50

the problem was an @ID in a subclass. Annoying, that Hibernate does not tell the Entity where it happens.
