Question

Answer 1

In my view I have a "unique" id, so I mapped it as the Entity id. It works very well:

@Entity
@Table(name="table")
@NamedQuery(name="Table.findAll", query="SELECT n FROM Table n")
public class Table implements Serializable {
    private static final long serialVersionUID = 1L;

    @Id
    @Column(name="column_a")
    private int columnA;
