Persistent object class signature checks

Last modified: 03 December 2024

Reports incorrectly defined persistent object classes in the following cases:

  • Class is not top-level

  • Class is final

  • Class is annotated several times

  • Class is defined as both a persistent entity and an entity listener

Example:

@Entity
@EntityListeners(value = JavaEntity.class) // Error: both @Entity and @EntityListener annotations are pointing to the same class
public final class JavaEntity { // Error: persistent entity should not be final
  ...
}
