Property Based Access in JPA - is an Emerging Antipattern 📎

Thinking longer about property, vs field based access, I cannot imagine a reasonable use case for the property based annotation. It is much cleaner to hide the internal, also persistent, state and expose only business methods (instead of dumb getters/setters).
So you should use:

    @Id
    @GeneratedValue(strategy=GenerationType.AUTO)
    @Column(name="ID")
    private Long id;

instead of:

    @Id
    @GeneratedValue(strategy=GenerationType.AUTO)
    @Column(name="ID")
    public Long getId(){return this.id;}

The field-based injection clearly separates between the business logic and state and promotes encapsulation.
And remember, Getters/Setters are evil, but sometimes necessary (e.g. if you like to use detached objects as Value Objects).
