Hibernate Criteria.setLockMode have unexpected behaviour when used in conjunction with MySQL -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: HHH-6125 URL: http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/browse/HHH-6125 Project: Hibernate Core Issue Type: Bug Components: core Affects Versions: 3.6.2 Environment: Hibernate 3.6.2, MySql 5.1 Reporter: Eric Poitras Priority: Minor Attachments: TestHibernate.java You expect hibernate to issue a select ... for update when issuing a Criteria of this form: // This fails Criteria c = s.createCriteria(SampleEntity.class); c.setLockMode( LockMode.PESSIMISTIC_WRITE ); SampleEntity e = (SampleEntity) c.uniqueResult(); But the MySQL dialect class simply ignore the lock mode per alias since MySQL does not support a per-table locking strategy. However, in the previous case, it should issue a for update since we access ALL query tables in update. Also, since pessimistic lock may be critical for some process synchronization, it should AT LEAST not silently fail. -- 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
