While working on the entity engine code, I noticed what appeared to be a
flaw in the entity cache implementation. So, I wrote a unit test to
confirm my suspicion and the test confirms the flaw. There is a
possibility it is a design "feature" so I'm asking for help here.
Here is the test code:
// Test entity condition cache
EntityCondition testCondition =
EntityCondition.makeCondition("description", EntityOperator.EQUALS,
"Testing Type #2");
List<GenericValue> testList = delegator.findList("TestingType",
testCondition, null, null, null, true);
assertEquals("Delegator findList returned one value", 1,
testList.size());
testValue = testList.get(0);
assertEquals("Retrieved from cache value has the correct
description", "Testing Type #2", testValue.getString("description"));
testValue = (GenericValue) testValue.clone();
testValue.put("description", "New Testing Type #2");
testValue.store();
testList = delegator.findList("TestingType", testCondition,
null, null, null, true);
assertEquals("Delegator findList returned empty list", 0,
testList.size());
The last assert fails - indicating a stale cache.
Am I correct or am I missing something?
