Adrian Pillinger commented on HHH-1725:
---------------------------------------
Please could a hibernate developer comment on why this was rejected. It seems as though lots of us encounter this bug and it is very important to our development that it is fixed.

> Key: HHH-1725
> URL: http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/browse/HHH-1725
> Project: Hibernate3
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: core
> Affects Versions: 3.2.0.cr2
> Reporter: Tomasz Bech
>
> It is realted to anomaly: http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/browse/HHH-1540
> 'When using custom event listeners, sometimes you mess with (and initialize) lazy collections by mistake, which causes CollectionEntry.postFlush(PersistentCollection) to throw an AssertionFailure'
> It is questionable why AT ALL exception is raised in this case!
> What is the most important: EJB3 spec is not prohibiting to check/read/ object involved in the event, so current implementation is agains EJB3 spec.
> Events are often used for validation so it is quite probable that the lazy property (collection) has to be accessed - and when it is lazy and not initialized before the exception is raised. Why hibernate cannot treat it in nicer way and allow such actions.
> One workaround is to not-use-lazy (very bad).
> Second workaround: in the code outside flush (not in event) pre-initialize all lazy properties (in fact simulation of 'not-lazy).
