Inheritance problems

[Sylvain ~ <sy...@gmail.com>]

Hi, I'm quite newbie to OJB, and I really need help.

I've got one base class "AbstractRoom" and two derived classes "Room"
and "Apartement", and I need to store them in one table named
"abstract_rooms".

The problem is that when I generate repository schema for the
database, it's like if the Apartement class is dropped (even if
Xdoclet process the source file), because it is not present in the
resulting repository file, thus absent of AbstractRoom extends.
Despite abstract_rooms table contains all columns from Rooms class,
there is no one from Apartement.
It seems that my class "Apartement" is not seen by XDoclet as a
persitence capable class, or simply "forget" my class and I wonder
what Am I doing wrong.

Any help would be appreciated.
Sylvain.

Relevant extract of Source files :

--- Apartement.java ---

/**
 * @ojb.class 	table="abstract_rooms"
 * 
 * @ojb.field	name="testField"
 * 				jdbc-type="INTEGER"
 */
public class Apartment extends AbstractRoom {
       
    
    public Apartment(){
        super();
        ojbConcreteClass = Apartment.class.getName();
        }
    
	public Apartment(Apartment apart){
	    super(apart);
	    ojbConcreteClass = Apartment.class.getName();
		}

    public Apartment(int number, float size){
        super(number,size);
        ojbConcreteClass = Apartment.class.getName();
        }

--- AbstractRoom.java ---
