Re: [hibernate-dev] HHH-6726 LONG and LONG RAW column types in Oracle
by Łukasz Antoniak
Currently Oracle supports database versions from 10.1 to 11.2 [1]. LONG
and LONG RAW data types are deprecated since version 8 and 8i (released
before September 2000) [2]. Oracle keeps those column types only for
backward compatibility [3].
I tried the following scenario (Oracle 10gR2):
1. Create schema with "hibernate.hbm2ddl.auto" set to "create". The LONG
column is created.
2. Insert some data.
3. Modify Oracle dialect as Gail suggested. Avoid setting
"hibernate.hbm2ddl.auto".
4. Insert some data.
To my surprise the test actually passed :). However, I think that we
cannot guaranty the proper behavior in every situation.
As for performance, ImageType is extracted by calling
ResultSet.getBytes() method, which fetches all data in one call [4]. I
don't suppose a major performance difference when data is streamed in
another call. oracle.jdbc.driver.LongRawAccessor.getBytes also fetches
data by reading the stream.
The bug reading LONG column affects JDBC drivers since version 10.2.0.4.
I think that we have to choose between:
- changing Oracle10gDialect. Make a not about it in migration guide to
4.0 and update "5.2.2. Basic value types" chapter in Hibernate
documentation.
- introducing Oracle11gDialect. It can sound weird to access Oracle 10g
database with Oracle 11g dialect.
- disabling execution of Hibernate tests that fail because of this issue
with @SkipForDialect (and maybe develop another version of them with
CLOBs and BLOBs, @RequiresDialect). Hibernate is written correctly
according to "Default Mappings Between SQL Types and Java Types"
(referenced earlier by Gail) and this is more Oracle's JDBC
implementation issue. This option came to my mind, but it's weird :P.
I would vote for the first option.

Hibernate ORM 4.2.0.CR1 Released
by Brett Meyer
http://in.relation.to/Bloggers/HibernateORM420CR1Released
Hibernate ORM 4.2.0.CR1 was just released. The full changelog can be viewed here: https://hibernate.onjira.com/secure/ReleaseNote.jspa?projectId=10031&vers...
This release included a few notable bug fixes and improvements:
- https://hibernate.onjira.com/browse/HHH-465 : "nulls first" and "nulls last" syntax in HQL ordering
- https://hibernate.onjira.com/browse/HHH-1917 : automatically delete orphaned JoinTable rows on a bulk delete affecting a Many-To-Many association
- https://hibernate.onjira.com/browse/HHH-2448 : deterministic column aliases, regardless of mapping ordering -- mainly affects clustering environments
- https://hibernate.onjira.com/browse/HHH-7797 : the logic handling unique columns and constraints was entirely re-written and improved
In addition, a handful of performance improvements went in. So far, we have seen dramatic improvements in JBoss benchmarking.
- https://hibernate.onjira.com/browse/HHH-7746 : additional batch loading algorithms (use "hibernate.batch_fetch_style" in your settings -- see the new Enum for choices)
- https://hibernate.onjira.com/browse/HHH-7872 : improves L2 caching of reference data (enable with "hibernate.cache.use_reference_entries")
- https://hibernate.onjira.com/browse/HHH-7902 : Originally, JDBC types (Connection, Statement, ResultSet, etc.) were wrapped with Java Proxies to introduce resource management, logging, etc. The proxying was shown to be a performance hotspot, so they were entirely removed. The functionality was replaced with a new set of internal contracts/helpers.
As usual, thank you to the community for all the support and hard work!

Hibernate ORM in OSGi
by Brett Meyer
HHH-7527 [1] will address Hibernate ORM in OSGi environments.
This task obviously has many design considerations and sub-tasks. Today, we created a Proposal Wiki [2] to start brainstorming many of the topics. We'd sincerely appreciate the communities involvement and feedback, especially with respect to identifying the many types of OSGi environment use cases.
The best way to help is to join the discussion on HHH-7527. Thanks!

4.2 branch
by Steve Ebersole
As discussed in the last developer IRC meeting, the performance work we
have been doing based on 4.1 will become its own base release (4.2)
rather than continuing with 4.1 due to the fact that quite a few SPIs
were re-worked in that effort. To that end, this afternoon I will
rename the 4.1-perf branch to 4.2 and prepare an initial release 4.2.0.CR1.

Can we assume that, after 1) and 2) execute, all information (in the form of hbm/annotations source) is available to resolve all existing associations?
If anything is left unresolved, should it be an exception?

Can we assume that after 3) is executed that all new and pre-existing (from 1) and 2)) associations in the metadata are (still) resolved? If so, should there be a check to ensure this is true?

Ah, I think I get it. If Envers provided EntityBinding graphs (instead of JAXB mappings), then Envers would contribute those bindings via the MetadataContributor service.

Are Envers bindings completely unrelated (in terms of subclasses/superclasses) and unassociated (in terms of one-to-one/many-to-one/one-to-many/many-to-many associations) with entity bindings produced by 1), 2), and 3)?
If unrelated and unassociated with mappings provided by 1) and 2), then it makes sense that a separate Binder be used for 4).

Re: [hibernate-dev] MetadataSourceProcessor and associations
by Gail Badner
I am trying to figure out when we have all the necessary information to resolve everything required for associations.
IIUC, sources are processed in the following order by default:
1) HBM sources extracted from MetadataSources passed to MetadataImpl constructor;
2) annotations sources extracted from MetadataSources passed to MetadataImpl constructor;
3) (annotations?) sources contributed by MetadataContributor service;
4) HBM sources from JaxbRoot objects produced by AdditionalJaxbRootProducer service.
The same Binder is used create bindings from 1) and 2). A different Binder is used for 4).
I am not familiar with how 3) and 4) are intended to be used.
Does 3) make "contributions" directly to the MetadataImpl? What kind of contributions are they?
Can 3) and 4) result in added or changed EntityBindings?

Gail

MetadataSourceProcessor and associations
by Gail Badner
Is it possible for an entity containing one side of an association be mapped using annotations and the entity containing the opposite side of the association be mapped using an hbm mapping?
For example, suppose Order has annotations:
@OneToMany( mappedby="order" )
List<OrderLine> Order.orderLines
OrderLine is mapped using hbm.xml with:
<many-to-one name="order"/>
If annotations are processed first, then, IIUC, when Order.orderLines is processed, the mapping for OrderLine won't be found (via chasing) because the AnnotationMetadataSourceProcessorImpl does not have the source for the OrderLine mapping. As a result, the OrderLine EntityBinding will not be able to be built until HbmMetadataSourceProcessorImpl is processed.
If so, this poses a fundamental problem with entity "chasing" as it is implemented now, since the associated entity would not be processed by the same MetadataSourceProcessor.
Am I missing something here?
Thanks,
Gail
