hello,
What is the relationship between the objects and the tables involved? Have you tried using the column in a 1:1 mapping to the entity mapping the other table? If so, all you should need to do is make sure that the 1:1 is set to be insertable=false, writable=false so that the class type actually sets the column..
Best Regards,
Chris
