[jboss-user] [JBoss Cache: Core Edition] - Re: on child insert parent, child collection updated in DB b

Brian, Firstly, thanks for your prompt replies. I am using Bitronix TX Manager. It is now pretty obvious that User.userSessions collection node is NOT getting evicted from cache when login() Session flushes or tx commits. If your read is that Hibernate code should be evicting this collection node, then that's where the problem is. Could you please reference class/method where that decision (to evict) is being made? I will step through. I wonder whether the fact that the collection node is created and should be evicted in the same Hibernate Session is relevant (and is source of the problem). Recall that login() essentially does this: //check if user's already logged in begin session.open() usr.getSessions().isEmpty() //AFAIK this populates cache with collection node with 0 elements //insert new element into collection usr.addSession(new UserSession()); //guess nothing is happening in cache here //flush session session.flush(); //as you say user.userSessions node should be evicted (but is NOT) commit Hmm.... Also, let's say the above is the problem. Why isn't this ever happening when only 1 user is involved, but happens for a random subset of users under load. If work on a given user is done by a distinct thread and there are no worker threads involved, why the different results? Perhaps something somewhere is forgetting to clear some ThreadLocal (HTTP threads are pooled by tomcat) View the original post : http://www.jboss.org/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=4214675#...
