Michael Dick commented on OPENJPA-1933: --------------------------------------- I took a look through the documentation, here's my take. If you have a persistence.xml file with version=2.0. The proxies will be removed if DetachedStateManager=true and (IgnoreDetachedStateFieldForProxySerialization=false or is unset). Otherwise the proxies will not be removed. If you have a persistence.xml file with version=1.0. The proxies should be serialized if you call EntityManager.clear() prior to serializing. Otherwise (e.g. if you call detach() or detachAll(), or find() ) the proxies will be removed. This seems to be the opposite of what you've found (but I haven't thoroughly looked at the tests) - so you're right - we have a fish in our deserialization logic. This is a very confusing set of options and we should try to make it clearer in a future release, but for now I think we've at least identified the issue. > @ElementCollection loose proxytype after serialisation > ------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: OPENJPA-1933 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OPENJPA-1933 > Project: OpenJPA > Issue Type: Bug > Components: kernel > Affects Versions: 2.0.0, 2.0.1 > Reporter: Mark Struberg > Priority: Critical > Fix For: 2.2.0 > > Attachments: OPENJPA-1933-test-2.patch, OPENJPA-1933-test.patch, > openjpa-reg-tests.tar.gz > > > usually an @ElementCollection field loaded from the database will be created > as a org.apache.openjpa.java$.util$.ArrayListProxy. > After serialisation/deserialisation (with DetachedStateField=true) the List > will be recreated as standard java.util.ArrayList. > This has the bad side effect, that any subsequent add to this > ElementCollection will not set the _dirty field in the DetachedStateManager > and any changes in the ElementCollection will not get saved to the database. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
