Projection doesn't work with a @MappedSuperclass [DATAREST-385]

[spring-projects-issues]

Petar Tahchiev opened DATAREST-385 and commented

Hello,

I'm having the following MapedSuperclass which is a base class for all my entities:

@MappedSuperclass
public abstract class AbstractEntityModel {

    @Column(name = "id", nullable = false)
    private String uid = java.util.UUID.randomUUID().toString();
}

and I have created a Projection for it in the same package:

@Projection(name = "basic", types = { AbstractEntityModel.class })
public interface BasicEntityModelProjection {

    public String getUid();
}

Unfortunately when I navigate to the /rest url I don't see the projection in the generated URLs of my entities

Is it the ?projection missing only or are you saying that the projection also not getting applied, when you submit the parameter nonetheless

Hi Oliver,

I don't see it in the json response, but even if I provide the projection like this: http://localhost:8111/storefront/rest/category?projection=basic it still returns the whole json category

Tested with the latest SNAPSHOT it works like a charm :)
