Hi Martin, Thank you for your fast reply. Removing an object from cache using broker.removeFromCache(o) and making a new load of the object creates a new JVM object that points to the same database object, right? If this is true, my problem remains because other objects would still reference the old JVM object. Is there a way to reload the object data without having to create a new JVM object?
Let me explain with some code what I want to do: transaction.begin(); Customer c=new Customer(); c.setName("customer"); transaction.lock(c,transaction.WRITE); //persist the new customer transaction.commit(); //after some time someone changes Customer's name to "new customer" directly in the database transaction.begin(); Customer c=loadCustomer(); // loads the customer persisted before from cache Order o=new Order(); o.setCustomer(c); cache.reloadObject(c); //reload object data from database boolean referenceOk=(c==o.getCustomer()); // I wanted referenceOk to be true boolean dataReloaded="new customer".equals(c.getName()); //I wanted dataReloaded to be true transaction.commit(); Thank you very much for your help.
