Re: [hibernate-dev] Question regarding method ReadWriteEhcacheNaturalIdRegionAccessStrategy#afterInsert

Hi Alex, I have a question in regard to class ReadWriteEhcacheNaturalIdRegionAccessStrategy where you are listed as co-author. Do you maybe know, why inserts do only succeed if there is no existing value mapped to the actual key? Code-snippet of ReadWriteEhcacheNaturalIdRegionAccessStrategy#afterInsert << if ( item == null ) { << region.put( key, new Item( value, null, region.nextTimestamp() ) ); Namely I did expect, that in case of item being an "unlocked" Lock, the insert should succeed nonetheless. Something like following: >> if ( item == null || item.isWriteable( region.nextTimestamp(), null, null ) ) { >> region.put( key, new Item( value, null, region.nextTimestamp() ) ); I ask because after trying to resolve a Todo in StatefulPersistenceContext (you find it by searching for "should be using access strategy, not plain evict.. "), some test in CachedMutableNaturalIdStrictReadWriteTest fails exactly because such "re-caching" attempts do not succeed anymore. best regards Guenther Demetz
