Spring Boot (5) JPA : Column name annotation fails (with set naming convention) - spring-boot

Question

I am having an issue where columns are getting renamed to snakecase. Sadly I can not rename the columns since I am creating a 3rd party tool to work on software developed for us by another company. I have googled / searched SO and tried all sorts of fixes. I am a noob at spring / JPA/ hibernate and some help would be greatly appreciated. Using IntelliJ Ultimate if that matters.
Edit:
Might help if I include the error I am getting.
Caused by: com.microsoft.sqlserver.jdbc.SQLServerException: Invalid column name 'birth_date'.

Answer 1

You have configured the physical naming strategy to use org.hibernate.boot.model.naming.PhysicalNamingStrategyStandardImpl which by implementation should return the Identifier name as set ( which is what you want).
Maybe you also have to configure the implicit naming strategy for the case you have some fields where you didn't set the column name explicitely.
Your application.yml file could look like this (i removed the properties field from it since you didn't used it):
spring:
jpa:
show-sql: true
hibernate:
naming:
physical-strategy: org.hibernate.boot.model.naming.PhysicalNamingStrategyStandardImpl
implicit-strategy: org.hibernate.boot.model.naming.ImplicitNamingStrategyLegacyJpaImpl
hibernate:
dialect: org.hibernate.dialect.SQLServer2008Dialect
datasource:
driverClassName: com.microsoft.sqlserver.jdbc.SQLServerDriver
url: jdbc:sqlserver://localhost:1433/;databaseName:DBNAME
username: sa
password:
If none of the strategies works for you, you can always write your own by implementing the interfaces org.hibernate.boot.model.naming.PhysicalNamingStrategy (for physical naming) and org.hibernate.boot.model.naming.ImplicitNamingStrategy (for implicit naming).

Answer 2

Turns out the context of my application was being bypassed as I was not using all of spring boot and partially creating my own context. Rebuilding the context to work more in line with spring boot made it pick up the proper configuration from applicatiom.yml.
