Hello.
I am facing a weired problem here (JBoss AS 4.0.5 GA ). We have a setup in which several
entity beans have CMR-Fields which are exposed as normal CMP fields as well (basically the
same way as described here:
http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&t=57895). When I update the
relation as in such a scenario the changes to the foreign key field are not persisted if I
perform a read operation after the update to the field. Sounds confusing? Here is some
code to illustrate what I do.
We have a CustomerBean which references an AddressBean:
| public abstract class CustomerBean implements EntityBean {
| /**
| * @ejb.pk-field
| * @sql.notnull name=CUS_ID_NN
| * @ejb.persistence column-name="id"
| * @ejb.interface-method
| */
| public abstract Long getId();
|
| /**
| * @ejb.interface-method
| * @ejb.transaction type="Required"
| */
| public abstract void setId(Long s);
| ...
| /**
| * @ejb.interface-method view-type="local"
| * @ejb.relation name="Customer contains an address"
role-name="Customer-Address" target-ejb="Address"
| * target-role-name="Address-belongs-to-Customer"
target-multiple="no"
| * @jboss.relation fk-column="addressId" related-pk-field="id"
| * @jboss.relation-mapping style="foreign-key"
| * @ejb.value-object aggregate="sample.AddressValue"
aggregate-name="AddressValue"
| * members="sample.AddressLocal"
members-name="Address" relation="external"
| * @sql.skip
| */
| public abstract AddressLocal getAddress();
|
| /**
| * @ejb.transaction type="Required"
| * @ejb.interface-method view-type="local"
| */
| public abstract void setAddress(AddressLocal Address);
|
| /**
| * @sql.notnull name=
| * @ejb.persistence column-name="addressId"
| * @ejb.interface-method
| */
| public abstract Long getAddressId();
|
| /**
| * @ejb.interface-method
| * @ejb.transaction type="Required"
| */
| public abstract void setAddressId(Long s);
|
| ...
| }
|
This would be the AddressBean:
| public abstract class AddressBean implements EntityBean {
| /**
| * @ejb.pk-field
| * @ejb.persistence column-name="id"
| * @ejb.interface-method
| * @sql.primarykey name=ADD_PK
| */
| public abstract Long getId();
|
| /**
| * @ejb.interface-method
| * @ejb.transaction type="Required"
| */
| public abstract void setId(Long s);
|
| /**
| * @ejb.persistence column-name="salutation"
| * @ejb.interface-method
| */
| public abstract String getSalutation();
|
| /**
| * @ejb.interface-method
| * @ejb.transaction type="Required"
| */
| public abstract void setSalutation(String s);
|
| ...
|
| }
|
And finally some SessionBean which performs the update:
| public abstract class CustomerMangementBean implements javax.ejb.SessionBean {
| ...
| /**
| * @ejb.interface-method view-type="remote"
| * @ejb.transaction type="Required"
| *
| * @return
| */
| public CustomerValue updateCustomer(CustomerValue cv, boolean trashTheRelation ) {
| try {
| AddressLocal al = AddressUtil.getLocalHome().create(cv.getAddressValue());
| cv.setAddressId(al.getId());
| CustomerLocal cl = CustomerUtil.getLocalHome().findByPrimaryKey(new
CustomerPK(cv.getId()));
| cl.setAddressId(al.getId());
| cl.setSignStamp(cv.getSignStamp());
| if (trashTheRelation ) {
| log.debug("this will trash the CMR field: " + cl.getAddress());
| }
| return cv;
| } catch (CreateException e) {
| log.debug("Error in CustomerMangementBean#updateCustomer", e);
| throw new EJBException("Error in CustomerMangementBean#updateCustomer",
e);
| } catch (NamingException e) {
| log.debug("Error in CustomerMangementBean#updateCustomer", e);
| throw new EJBException("Error in CustomerMangementBean#updateCustomer",
e);
| } catch (FinderException e) {
| log.debug("Error in CustomerMangementBean#updateCustomer", e);
| throw new EJBException("Error in CustomerMangementBean#updateCustomer",
e);
| }
| }
| ...

And, not to forget the obligatory test-code:
| CustomerManagement customerManagement =
CustomerManagementUtil.getHome(environment).create();
| CustomerValue cv = new CustomerValue(new Long(id), new
java.sql.Timestamp(System.currentTimeMillis()), null);
| AddressValue av2 = new AddressValue();
| av2.setFirstName("Joe");
| av2.setLastName("Dalton");
| av2.setStreet("wallstreet 23a");
| av2.setZipcode("12346");
| av2.setCity("Dasytown");
| cv.setAddressValue(av2);
| customerManagement.updateCustomer(cv, true);
|
|
Here is what the tests reveal:
Before running the test class with the parameter trashTheRelation set to false
| ejb=> select * from customer;
| id | signstamp | addressid

...and afterwards:

Great! The relation is set as expected!
and now the retry with the parameter set to true. First prepare the database.
| ejb=> update customer set addressid = null;
| UPDATE 1
| ejb=> select * from customer;
| id | signstamp | addressid
| ---------------+------------+-----------
| 1194955070209 | 2007-11-13 |
| (1 row)
|
as you can see: AddressId is null. Now I run the client again and set the parameter to
true so that the relation is not persisted for some unknown reason. Here is the server log
for that try:

let's query the DB again...
| ejb=> select * from customer;
| id | signstamp | addressid
| ---------------+------------+-----------
| 1194955070209 | 2007-11-13 |
| (1 row)
|
again null! Why??
Some things to notice:
- when performing the log output which destroys the relation the correct id is returned as
you can see from the highlighted line in the log
- the addresses which are added here end up in the database.
- other changes (let's say change the customer's name) are persisted as well.
- no exception in any form is reported
- returning the id field of the customer does not seem to destroy the relation
- when I remove the AddressId fields or the Relation fields the problem disappears. (But
that is hardly an option for some reasons I do not intend to discuss here.)
- changing the code from
| cl.setAddressId(al.getId());
|
to
| cl.setAddress(al);
|
changes the behaviour: Now no update will succeed in any case.
- this does not seem to be a database issue as the example will perform alike on oracle
and postgresql databases
To sum it up: If you have a bean with an FK-field and a CMR field which reflects the
fk-field and you update the fk-field any further read operation on that will void your
changes.
Is that behaviour intended? What can I do against that?
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
