[hibernate-issues] [Hibernate-JIRA] Commented: (HHH-2224) executeUpdate causes coarse cache invalidation

All means everything in all regions, including read-only caches.

trust me, and you will end up with hard to find bugs or stale data

executeUpdate causes coarse cache invalidation ---------------------------------------------- Key: HHH-2224 URL: http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/browse/HHH-2224 Project: Hibernate Core Issue Type: Improvement Affects Versions: 3.2.0.ga Environment: Hibernate 3.2.0.ga, Oracle 9.2 Reporter: Stefan Fleiter Attachments: bulk_testcase.zip I am developing an application and want to mix bulk-updates with normal hibernate operations. The bulk updates work fine, but invalidate the whole region and I've found no possibility to prevent this. There would be 3 options to improve: - Invalidate only the modified objects if the ids where given as Query-parameters. - Let me deactivate the invalidation so I can invalidate the affected objects myself. - Transform the DML to a select to gather the objects to invalidate before executing the DML The reference documentation does not mention caching at all: http://www.hibernate.org/hib_docs/v3/reference/en/html_single/#batch-direct The best documentation I've found is: http://blog.hibernate.org/cgi-bin/blosxom.cgi/2005/07/19#dml-basic Maybe this could be added to the reference documentation... I already posted this at the forum http://forum.hibernate.org/viewtopic.php?t=966775 but did not get a single answer. I've attached a testcase for this.
