RE: [jbosscache-dev] FW: [jboss-dev-forums] [Design of the JBoss EJBContainer] - Problemwith order of entity cache operations withHibernate

+10 on JBC/Hibernate integration testing too, but whose responsibility +would be to deal with them and make sure that they work? Hibernate or +JBC developer's? Rather than splitting responsibility, I think it'd be +easier to have someone in charge of it who would lease with the rest of +Hibernate and JBC developers, but this is different topic already... +:-) I sent an email a month ago about the possibility of creating a Hibernate/JBC compatibility matrix but not a single person replied. These tests would give us the information we need for this.

The EJB3 testsuite has one test in this area, which luckily uncovered the issue. Only uses the TM that's integrated in the AS; it was a lucky hit. There should be more EJB3 tests as well, but the primary place for it should be in Hibernate/JBC. E.g. this issue quite likely impacts non-EJB3 Hibernate as well. That's how we find such a thing. Anyone have any good thoughts on what to do about it? Perhaps Hibernate exposes something like JBC's OrderedSynchronizationHandler, which the JBC integration can use to insert it's synchronization at the correct point?
