[jbossseam-issues] [JBoss JIRA] Commented: (JBSEAM-1487) Changes to entity converter requires selectable entities to be managed.

Changes to entity converter requires selectable entities to be managed. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: JBSEAM-1487 URL: http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBSEAM-1487 Project: JBoss Seam Issue Type: Bug Components: JSF Affects Versions: 1.3.0.ALPHA Environment: JBOss AS 4.2.0.GA Seam 1.3.0.ALPHA Reporter: Felix Ho?feld Assigned To: Pete Muir Fix For: 2.0.0.CR1 Attachments: JBSEAM-1487.patch The refactoring of the entity converter requires entities to be managed. If they are not the following exception is thrown: org.hibernate.TransientObjectException: The instance was not associated with this session. For me this is an api regression and therefore a blocker because it may introduce very nasty bugs which will be hard to detect. While a work around exists (see below) it is not easy to refactor existing application accordingly. Therefore this may effectively prevent many people from upgrading to JBoss 4.2.0/Seam 1.3.0. (This is just my personal opinion and sort - feel free to downgrade this bug!) Would it be possible to catch the exception and fall back to the old behavior?
