-----------------------------------

Thank you for responding so quickly. The patch looks along the lines of the workaround already in place for our system. It should work as expected.

Thank you,
Jim

> As mentioned in the Hibernate Forums (_[Cannot make an immutable entity modifiable|https://forums.hibernate.org/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=1003756]_), I am dealing with an issue brought to my attention wherein a detached transient business object is being refreshed by the session and returns an exception.  The exception(_See Below_) is thrown from within the DefaultRefreshEventListener's onRefresh method at the end of processing just prior to returning the refreshed object.

> This problem showed up during an update from Hibernate libraries 3.3.2.  The issue was proven not to exist in the previous version through the attached test case.  It is mine and my coworkers opinion that the issue lies with the DefaultRefreshEventListener attempting to set the read only state of the refreshed object _back_ to the state that it was in prior to refreshing.  Being that the object is detached from the current session, and therefore viewed as transient, the previous state of the object cannot be ascertained and the listener tries to set the read only to source default.
> ----
> {{{code:title=DefaultRefreshEventListener lines 152 - 156 \\\\ onRefresh(RefreshEvent event, Map refreshedAlready)}
> // Keep the same read-only/modifiable setting for the entity that it had before refreshing;
> // If it was transient, then set it to the default for the source.
> if ( result != null ) {
> 	source.setReadOnly( result, ( e == null ? source.isDefaultReadOnly() : e.isReadOnly() ) );
> }
> {code}}}
> ----
> While this appears to be a fairly straightforward procedure, the object being refreshed is immutable.  With the object being transient, the persistence context does not have an entry for the object and the _source_ tries to {{*setReadOnly*}} to {{source.isDefaultReadOnly()}}. This results in the session trying to set an immutable object's state to writable.
