[hibernate-issues] [Hibernate-JIRA] Updated: (HHH-2764) EntityType.deepCopy needs to copy for EntityType.DOM4J

[ http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/browse/HHH-2764?page=c... ] John Verhaeg updated HHH-2764: ------------------------------ Fix Version/s: 4.x Looks like the issue is due to the bidirectional relationship between DOM parent and child elements. For POJOs, this isn't usually an issue since the component "value" is just also set as a property on the copied parent class, without being removed from the parent in the query results (technically violating composition rules, but the state of these copies is all we really care about). For all modes, property values are simply returned rather than copied, but in the case of DOM (and I suspect also Map of Maps) adding the value to the copied parent also detaches that value from its previous parent, thus "stealing" it from the actual results. The best way to address this is probably via entity-mode specific code for a deepCopy method introduced to the tuplizer that would actually create a copy of the value, but since that would introduce a breaking change to the tuplizer spi, this is being re-targeted for 4.x. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/secure/Administrators.... - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
