Andy Blower updated TAP5-834: ----------------------------- Attachment: TAP5-834-patch.txt As there doesn't appear to be anyone else who's bothered about clustering performance with Tapestry 5, we've implemented solution 1and tested it with our application. I've attached the patch which I hope will make its way into the Tapestry svn repository and thus into next Tapestry 5 release. > BaseOptimizedSessionPersistedObject does not work correctly with Tomcat & > Jetty > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: TAP5-834 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TAP5-834 > Project: Tapestry 5 > Issue Type: Bug > Components: tapestry-core > Affects Versions: 5.1.0.0, 5.1.0.1, 5.1.0.2, 5.1.0.3, 5.1.0.4, 5.1.0.5, > 5.0.18 > Reporter: Andy Blower > Priority: Critical > Attachments: TAP5-834-patch.txt > > > OptimizedSessionPersistedObject's suggestion for implementing > isSessionPersistedObjectDirty(), as used by > BaseOptimizedSessionPersistedObject, does not work correctly with Tomcat & > Jetty. (and quite possibly other servlet containers too, but we only use > Jetty & Tomcat so have only confirmed it with them) > OptimizedSessionPersistedObject model relies on the servlet container session > object triggering a HttpSessionBindingEvent when an object is re-stored in > the session to reset the dirty flag. I've only looked at the source of Tomcat > 5.5 and 6 but when an object is replaced in the session using setAttribute() > the new object and the existing object are compared by reference only, if > they both refer to the same object then no HttpSessionBindingEvent is > triggered. > From Tomcat StandardSession.java: > // Call the valueBound() method if necessary > if (notify && value instanceof HttpSessionBindingListener) { > // Don't call any notification if replacing with the same value > Object oldValue = attributes.get(name); > if (value != oldValue) { > event = new HttpSessionBindingEvent(getSession(), name, > value); > try { > ((HttpSessionBindingListener) value).valueBound(event); > } catch (Throwable t){ > manager.getContainer().getLogger().error > (sm.getString("standardSession.bindingEvent"), t); > } > } > } > So, using OptimizedSessionPersistedObject, there is currently no way of > setting the dirty flag to false after the object has been saved in the > session - hence we are propagating all of the SSOs across the cluster all of > the time because the dirty flag stays set to true. > I think there are two possible solutions to this issue - I prefer the first > by a large margin, but both modify the SessionImpl.restoreDirtyObjects() > method. > 1) Add a new method to OptimizedSessionPersistedObject interface to reset the > dirty flag, and a corresponding method in SessionPersistedObjectAnalyzer - > implementing them as appropriate, then call the new reset method after > setting the session attribute in SessionImpl.restoreDirtyObjects(). > 2) Remove the session attribute before adding it in > SessionImpl.restoreDirtyObjects(). Although I have a worry that this may > potentially cause hard to find concurrency problems. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
