[hibernate-issues] [Hibernate-JIRA] Created: (HHH-5409) bag and idbag should implement equals() and hashCode() the same way as other collections

bag and idbag should implement equals() and hashCode() the same way as other collections ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: HHH-5409 URL: http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/browse/HHH-5409 Project: Hibernate Core Issue Type: Bug Components: core Affects Versions: 3.3.1 Reporter: Dmitry Katsubo bags/idbags behave in inconsistent way in comparison to set/list/map in respect to {{equals()}} and {{hashCode()}}. In {{[PersistentBag.java|http://fisheye.jboss.org/browse/Hibernate/core/trunk/core/src/main/java/org/hibernate/collection/PersistentBag.java?r=HEAD#l510]}} {{equals()}} and {{hashCode()}} methods are commented and in {{[PersistentIdentifierBag.java|http://fisheye.jboss.org/browse/Hibernate/core/trunk/core/src/main/java/org/hibernate/collection/PersistentIdentifierBag.java?r=HEAD]}} not present. {{[PersistentMap.java|http://fisheye.jboss.org/browse/Hibernate/core/trunk/core/src/main/java/org/hibernate/collection/PersistentMap.java?r=HEAD#l449]}}, {{[PersistentSet.java|http://fisheye.jboss.org/browse/Hibernate/core/trunk/core/src/main/java/org/hibernate/collection/PersistentSet.java?r=HEAD#l428]}}, {{[PersistentList.java|http://fisheye.jboss.org/browse/Hibernate/core/trunk/core/src/main/java/org/hibernate/collection/PersistentList.java?r=HEAD#l484]}} however implement {{equals()}} and {{hashCode()}} methods correctly. The intention of this is clear: to avoid loading of the lazy collection on simple {{equals()}} call. * I think that it is a task for the end application to handle lazy collections as it is aware about this situation. * If there is a strong demand of not loading collections on {{equals()}} call for some applications, I suggest to make this behaviour configurable via additional attribute in XML mapping for all collections. * The behaviour should be documented as suggested in HHH-1642. I personally spend hours debugging before I understood why lists behave differently from bags. Probably relative issues: * HHH-3771 ({{equals()}} for lazy loaded objects) * HHH-1642 ({{equals()}} for {{[AbstractPersistentCollection.SetProxy|http://fisheye.jboss.org/browse/Hibernate/core/trunk/core/src/main/java/org/hibernate/collection/AbstractPersistentCollection.java?r=HEAD#l636]}}) -- 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
