I'm nearly sure that OJB never starts new threads by its own. AFAIK only the commons-DBCP api starts a new thread (if you enable it) to monitor/manage the used connections (used in a ConnectionFactory implementation, but per default OJB use it's own connection pool).

Unfortunately, I'm stuck on version 0.9.8. The application that I'm maintaining uses an opaque persistence framework that extends OJB; it creates classes explicitly which have disappeared between 0.9.8 and 1.0RC4. But because I'm using PB calls directly, I'm certain that this problem has nothing to do with the opaque persistence framework. (The value of this software company's persistence framework is dubious; I'll be glad when we can rid ourselves of it.)

Hi Sean:
AFAIK, this would not happen. BTW, what version are you using?
Best Regards,

Hello there.
I've had a curious experience recently with OJB, and I was wondering if someone could confirm my speculations about the behaviour.
Suppose I have two objects... Product and ProductCategory. The
Product
object carries both a productCategoryId field as well as a reference
field
productCategory which is declared as auto-retrieve in my class
descriptor.
Consider the following code segment...
Transaction tx = implementation.newTransaction(); tx.begin(); PersistenceBroker broker = ((HasBroker) tx).getBroker(); Product template = new Product(); template.setId(productId); Identity identity = new Identity(template, broker); Product result = (Product) broker.getObjectByIdentity(identity); tx.commit();
// Thread.sleep(50);
System.out.println(result.getProductCategory().getName());
Curiously, I sometimes experience a null pointer exception because result.getProductCategory() return null. When I uncomment the Threat.sleep() call, the null pointer exception never happens.
This seems to suggest that the productCategory reference is being
loaded
by another thread. Is this the case or can someone explain why Product.getProductCategory returns null for me sometimes when I first retrieve the Product object?
Thanks for your time...
