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.

Re: [hibernate-dev] improved Eclipse project support

No, you don't point to another JDK path, you use the JDK you are on, i.e.
Java 7. You just say which JDK version you want to target, e.g. 1.6. In the
HV case, the config is this:
<plugin>
<groupId>org.codehaus.mojo</groupId>
<artifactId>animal-sniffer-maven-plugin</artifactId>
<version>1.9</version>
<configuration>
<signature>
<groupId>org.codehaus.mojo.signature</groupId>
<artifactId>java16</artifactId>
<version>1.0</version>
</signature>
</configuration>
</plugin>
The referenced signature artifact contains the API signature for that JDK
version, i.e. all Java 1.6 methods, public fields etc. If your code uses a
method which is not part of that API signature, the plug-in will fail the
build.
That is, you still use the Java 7 API to compile against, but the plug-in
makes sure you use only those parts of the API which where there already as
of Java 6. So this emulates building against Java 6, but without the hassle
of handling several actual JDKs, setting up the boot classpath etc.

A synchronous JGroups backend for Hibernate Search
by Sanne Grinovero
In my first draft for HSEARCH-1296 I was automatically enabling the
blocking behaviour on JGroups if the worker backend was configured to
be synchronous (which is the default for workers),
but Emmanuel didn't like that and I think he has a good point:
The JGroups behaviour and the workers behaviour are two different
things; so I just separated this into a new configuration property
"block_waiting_ack" (boolean)
which of course applies only to the JGroups backends.
I agree it's important to keep the two separate, but also if the user
is configuring an ASYNC worker, he should set this option to false as
there is no benefit in waiting for the delivery.
Likewise, if SYNC is required, you would probably want to set this to true.
So I'm suggesting we make the default value ot "block_waiting_ack"
dependant on the worker execution, exposing the property as an
override.
Thoughts?
I guess it's much easier to understand the default behaviour if we
keep them separate, still I don't see much use for configuring the two
independently.
Cheers,
Sanne

Hibernate field with custom type changes, but object not marked as 'dirty' for update
by Adnan Raza
Hello hibernate-dev,
Currently I am facing issue with hibernate. I have a Entity class as given
below.
@Entity
@Table(name = TABLE_NAME)
@Access(AccessType.FIELD)
public class EntityClass {
//some fields
//*(a)Access(AccessType.PROPERTY)*
*@Column(name = "WA_DEFINED_TAB_INDEXES")*
* @Type(type = SetToArrayUserType.CLASS_NAME)*
private Set<Integer> oracleArray = new HashSet<>(10);
@Version
@Column(name = "versionCol" , nullable = false)
private Integer rhpVersion = 0;
//some getters/setters
}
In case of AccessType.FIELD mapping, Hibernate doesn't mark object as dirty
and doesn't update row when we only have changes in the fields that is
mapped for custom type. If we have AccessType.PROPERTY mapping, Hibernate
do mark object dirty and make update into database.
is it bug in hibernate?
I there is an open question also
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1268997/hibernate-field-with-custom-ty...
For the solution, either I will be forced use AccessType.PROPERTY or I have
to mix FIELD and PROPERTY approach.
Please let me know your thoughts about this.

Jenkins Plugins
by Steve Ebersole
Curious what the approach is for applying plugins on ci.hibernate.org.
IIRC Sanne you were wanting to script creation of these servers. Did
that include plugins as well?
I just installed the Gravatar plugin. Was thinking about applying some
others, but then I remember (vaguely) about this scripting. Just wanted
to make sure before I added more.
