Anyone has an example about how could OJB be used with Generics? This 
will not affect the class-mapping descriptor?

Hi,

we are currently thinking of moving from JDK1.4.2 to Java 5.0.x. The 
most interesting part of new Java Editition is the use of Generics 
which will lead to a much better understandable code-base. I have a 
few questions, which might be answered by someone of the OJB community:


- Are there any known issues of using OJB 1.0.x with Java 5.0?
- If so, will OJB 1.1 work with Java 5.0?
- Does anyone use Java 5.0 in a production system?

Perhaps someone already has expierience with Java 5.0 and OJB and can 
share this information.

Since Java generics will be compiled to non-generic bytecode, it does
not really affect classloading etc. Hence it should not matter when
running OJB, you simply specify the collection-descriptor etc. as you
would for non-generic code. The only differences are that OJB does not
(yet) support enums, and that the XDoclet module might not work with
generic code (you'll at least need a CVS build of the XDoclet code to
be able to parse 1.5 code).

Let me expand my idea (sorry if I get boring).
I have a User object. Each user has a LoginHour list. So, using JDK 5.0 
could I declare


public class User {
 private String username;
 private String password;
 private ListLoginHour loginHours;
 public void setUsername(String newUsername) {...}
 public String getUsername() {...}
 public void setPassword(String newPassword) {...}
 public Stirng getPassword() {...}
 public void setLoginHours(ListLoginHour loginHours) {
   this.loginHours = loginHours;
 }
 public ListLoginHour getLoginHours() {
   return this.loginHours;
 }
}

And this will work fine? There is nothing to be changed on 
class-descriptor, neihter in collection-descriptor?



TIA,

Edson Richter

I havn't tried but I think not as the generated bytecode (.class
files) will have a plain List in there and the compiler has inserted
casts in the appropriate places. You can see for yourself what the
compiler generates when you print some info via the java.lang.reflect
package for your class, you'll see that there isn't any generic stuff
in there.

I'll try that example with OJB...

RE: OJB 1.0.x and Java5.0

2005-08-08 Thread Clute, Andrew
Just to confirm, what you are doing works without issue.

We are currently doing in production exactly what you are asking here. As 
Thomas states, due to erasure, the same types are being placed into your 
persistent objects.

As for mutating OJB to use generics -- there really isn't much benefit that can 
be derived. Almost none of the PB-API methods pass in a class object to 
specifiy the type (it is inside a Identity, or a Query), it cannot used to 
specifiy a typed Collection.

It's actually kind of nice -- we have a wrapper API around OJB that takes in a 
critieria and spits back out a collection, and with generics we are now able to 
'type' it.

So, what use to look like this:

List l = ps.findCollectionByCriteria(Foo.class, crit);
Iterator it = l.iterator;
while (it.hasNext(){
Foo foo = (Foo)it.next();
foo.bar();
}  

With typed generics, and class attributes now looks like this:

for (Foo foo: ps.findCollecionByCriteria(Foo.class, crit)){
   foo.bar();
}

Our API decleration for this method looks like this:

public T extends BusinessObject ListT findCollectionByCriteria(ClassT 
clazz, Criteria crit);

While there isn't as much stuff that can be done with OJB itself, it sure made 
our wrapper classes nicer.

Yes we use Java 5.0 in our Crisfield product, but we have not migrated our 
OJB projects to it yet.

AFAIK it does. In one of our projects we use Java5 as the development
JDK (though the deployment platform is JDK 1.4.2), and it works
without problems.
I think that even generics work as they are compiled to normal
generic-less bytecode anyway. I haven't tried them though.
The only other Java5 feature that is relevant to OJB - enums - does
not work yet. It might be easy but nobody has found the time to
investigate yet.

I'am using OJB with java 5, and haven't noticed any issues with it, 
because of runtime type erasure i guess. Except  for the xdoclet module 
that was patched i think to be able to parse Java 5 classes.
