[hibernate-dev] dehydrate knows acout the Hibernate mapping, disassemble does not.

[Eric J. Van der Velden]

Hello,

I have to correct my code because I work with a second level cache in the
following case (1-N bidirectional).

Suppose we have a Container class type, with a Set<Item>, and an Item class
type. In the Hibernate mapping we make the Set non-inverse.

For persistence of the Item instances we only have to add them to the
Container instance's Set, and I do not have to set the Container reference
in the Item instance.

When an Item is inserted in the database table, the
Item-persister.dehydrate method skips the Container reference in the Item
instance, and takes the Long which is there because of
the  BackrefPropertyAccessor$BackrefGetter.getForInsert() method. This will
be the foreign key in the row.

The Item-persister.getPropertyInsertability()=[true,true,false,true] for
example, and the method  Item-persister.dehydrate knows about it: The false
means: skip the Container reference in the Item instance, and the llast
true means: take this number (instead).

My question is: Why does the Item-persister.disassemble not take into
account the Hibernate mapping? Because it does not, I have to make a
correction in my code to set the Container reference in the Item instances,
only for the second level cache.

Thanks.
