With the following simple entity, if we simply put another field to its properties field, the entity won’t be saved. @Table @Entity public class MetaEntry { @Id private String uuid; @Convert(converter = PropertyConverter.class) private Map< String , Object > properties; private String str = "x" ; // ... } * The entity won’t be saved after calling patchProperties function. * If @Transactional is removed, the entity WILL BE saved. * If @Transactonal is kept but another field setStr is modified, then the entity WILL BE saved. @Component public class TestService { private final MetaRepository metaRepository; @Autowired public TestService(MetaRepository metaRepository) { this.metaRepository = metaRepository; } @Transactional // will work if commented public void patchProperties( String uuid, String key, Object value) { var meta = metaRepository.findById(uuid).get(); meta.getProperties().put(key, value); // meta.setStr(key); // will work if uncommented metaRepository.save(meta); } } Expected Behavior: The entity will be saved under @Transactional annotation and if only the properties gets modified. --------- What Else --------- * I’ve tried the same code with spring boot 2.7.9 with Hibernate 5.6.15.Final and all worked fine. * I’ve tried to debug the process and found that the loadedState of EntityEntry shares the same HashMap object with user’s meta.getProperties. --------- Test Case --------- Run mvn test after extract the attached file. The test JpaTest1ApplicationTests#test will reproduce the issue. Thanks!
