Re: [castor-dev] Castor behaves differently within JBoss

[Russell, Glenn]

Hey,

 

I submitted a patch for this. Download the latest version of jboss-castor.jar from jboss.org. It has been updated to include an autostore flag on the mbean definition in jboss.jcml

 

Add the attribute: -

 

<attribute name="AutoStore">false</attribute>

 

hth,

 

Glenn.

Subject: [castor-dev] Castor behaves differently within JBoss

Hi,

I have just established that Castor, if used within JBoss, will not persist references to other objects.
The same code/mapping will work just fine stand-alone.

For example if we have an object of class Test reference an object of type Company, that reference will not be saved to the DB table if run in JBoss.
I suspect that I may have something misconfigured. However, dependencies (not references) are persisted correctly.

What do I need to do here? Any JBoss-Castor exeperts?
Oleg Nitz, are you there?

Thanks in advance,

-- Jacek




Environment:

JBoss 2.4.3, Oracle 8.7.1 All transactions are bean-managed, set to "RequiresNew"


This DOES NOT SAVE the reference to Company (JBOSS Session Bean)
This is a session bean (remote) method:

public Test createTest(Company c)
    throws InvalidArgumentException, ReflexServerException, RemoteException
    {
        Company co = null;
        Test t = null;
        if (c == null)
            throw new InvalidArgumentException("Argument cannot be null");

        try {           
            co = (Company) pm.findByPrimaryKey(test.Company.class, new Integer(30));
            t = new Test(70);
            t.setOwnerCompany(co);
            System.out.println("Co " + co);
            System.out.println("test " + t);           
            pm.create(t);
        }
        catch (Exception ex) {
            if (ex instanceof InvalidArgumentException)
               throw new InvalidArgumentException(ex.getMessage());
            else {
                ex.printStackTrace();
                throw new ReflexServerException(ex.getMessage());
            }
        }
        return t;
    }

This WORKS:

public void test() {
        Company co = null;
        Test t = null;

        Database db;
        try {
            db = jdo.getDatabase();
            db.setAutoStore(true);
            db.begin();
            writer.println("Begin transaction");

            co = (Company) db.load(test.Company.class, new Integer(30));
            t = new Test(70);
            t.setOwnerCompany(co);
            System.out.println("Co " + co);
            System.out.println("test " + t);
            db.create(t);
            db.commit();
        }
        catch (Exception ex) {
            ex.printStackTrace();
            System.out.println("Exception " + ex);
        }
    }



Mapping:

<class name="test.Company" identity="companyID"  key-generator="SEQUENCE">
        <cache-type type="count-limited" capacity="200"/>

        <description>Company</description>
        <map-to table="Companies"/>

        <field name="companyID" type="integer">
            <sql name="companyID" type="numeric"/>
        </field>

        <field name="companyCode" type="string">
            <sql name="code" type="varchar"/>
        </field>

        <field name="tests" type="test.Test" collection="arraylist">
            <sql many-key="ownerCompanyID" />
        </field>

    </class>



    <class name="test.Test" identity="testID">
        <cache-type type="count-limited" capacity="200"/>

        <map-to table="Tests"/>

        <field name="testID" type="long">
            <sql name="testID" type="numeric"/>
        </field>

        <field name="ownerCompany" type="test.Company">
            <sql name="ownerCompanyID"/>
        </field>

     </class>
