[JBoss-dev] JBoss 4.0 Entity Redesign

2002-10-19 Thread Dain Sundstrom
While I was off line for the last two and a half weeks I worked on a 
redesign of entities from EntityContainer down.  The most important part 
of the redesign is the replacement of the EntityPersistentManager with 
some new interceptors.  Anyway, I have some questions regarding the 
container.

Are there any other important EntityPersistentManagers other then BMP 
and CMP?  David, I saw the one in connector and I think it will benefit 
from the new design as it can return to being just an interceptor.

When are we planing on converting the interceptor to having only a 
single invoke method?  I can easily do this with a new abstract 
interceptor that breaks into the two methods based on invocation type. 
Any objections?

Why are the basic interceptor functions like addInterceptor or 
getInterceptor implemented in EntityContainer and not Container?

Why must the last interceptor, ContainerInterceptor, be defined by the 
container?  Unless there is a reason, I'm going to move this of the 
container.

Does anyone have any general objections to this change?

I implemented this a couple of weeks ago and it works except for cmp
relations, so I didn't check it in.  The testsuite was fucked up at the
time, once I got the testsuite working again and found out about the cmr
problem I haven't had time to get back to it. It's probably just a dumb
mistake.  Would you like to take a look?

I think I moved them.

Good.  All the entity/session/mdb setup stuff should be in an interceptor
anyway IMO.

What I've done might be worth looking at first, save you a day or so.

Yes.  Is it checked in?

I think I moved them.


This is not checked in.

I'm doing training in Seattle next week, so I may not get to this until 
the week after.  If you have changes check them in, and I'll fix the cmr 
problems.  I have a fairly big change to EntityContainer, so please 
don't check in any changes to it until I've got mine in.

No, I didn't want to break cmr, especially since I haven't figured out how
to fix it.  Want a diff or want to wait?

Will this be, like, today?  If not can you send me a diff or something?

Do you have any guess at all where I might have installed the problem with
cmr by messing with interceptors?  There are no exceptions, but assigning a
collection from one entity to another results in both collections being
empty.

No.  Did you only change the interceptors?

Looks like thirdparty/xdoclet/xdoclet is not checked out.

Where did you get your jboss-head from?

to fix, you can:

cd thirdparty
cvs get _thirdparty_xdoclet_xdoclet

--jason

Yukko.  Do you have a structure that is the same as a fresh checkout?  You
may have missed the excitement with the build system.  Head now has to be
checked out fresh with

cvs ... co -r HEAD jboss-head

I had to change some of the invoker also to not call invokeHome, and also
the containers.  Where is the main work of adding a collection to a cmr
done?

I just did a clean check out of jboss-all and I still get the error:

build.sh: Executing: /cygdrive/c/work/jboss/jboss-all/tools/bin/ant

I cleaned up my env variable so it wouldn't bitch but I still get the
error.  I have XDoclet checked out.

Administrator@GODEL ~/work/jboss/jboss-all
$ ls thirdparty/xdoclet/xdoclet/lib/
CVS xdoclet-java-module.jar   xdoclet-web-module.jar
commons-logging.jar xdoclet-jboss-module.jar  xdoclet-xdoclet-module.jar
xdoclet-bea-module.jar  xdoclet-jdo-module.jarxdoclet.jar
xdoclet-ejb-module.jar  xdoclet-jmx-module.jarxjavadoc.jar

Any ideas?

You did miss the build system fun.

Check out

cvs ... co -r HEAD jboss-head

Each branch now has its own set of module definitiions:

jboss-all == jboss-3.0
jboss-3.2
jboss-head

Do I really have to put the -r HEAD?

I'm glad I wasn't around for this one, but this solution seems like a

Anyway it will take me a while to move my changes from my old tree to

no, that's just for [misplaced] emphasis, sorry.

cvs ... co jboss-head 

works fine.

You should be able to update your old tree and copy the new thirdparty
directory over your old one and get a working build.  Jason's suggestion
would have the same effect.

It's better than all the alternatives we could think of.  It allows us to
update the build module structure on later releases.

You don't need to use the HEAD tag explicitly. This solution is a
hack for deficiencies with CVS.

Previously we were on opposite sides of this debate:-)

I think for simplicity we should have only stateless interceptors, any
interceptor can store per-stack state in a the stack top in a hashmap.

I rewrote the mbean interceptors this way, it works fine, but then juha
committed a completely different reimplementation.

I still haven't had a chance to look at the aspect stuff, I do think

--interceptor lifecycle events
--stateless interceptors, with interceptor state stored in the stack top
keyed by interceptor.
--one model of interceptors jboss-wide

are essential.

David there is no reason to enforce one. We need both coding styles it
is easier.  I don't think it is easier to always code

invocation.getValue("COMMIT-OPTION"); 
 
as opposed to 

commitOption 

when the commit option is configured at deployment.  Clearly we can
achieve the same result but there is we shouldn't enforce one.

not really.  In fact it is a minor point.  It is one of these things
were you can achieve the same thing with 2 different coding styles and
there is no reason to enforce one over the other.  It is an artificial
decision.  In fact if you think about it you will realize that we have
no business in deciding this bit of the coding practice.

The clear difference is 
1- If you need the client to send the information then clearly you need
the stateless stuff
2- if you don't, don't.

This was the way I created the aspect stuff initially.  The interceptors
were tottaly statless.  Even intercetor config was not stored in the
interceptor.  The config was put at the top of the stack.

Advantage:
1 interceptor instance could be used for all stack instances. (less memory
usage?? not really, the config objects are created and put at the top of the
stack)

Disadvantages:
Hard to develop the interceptors and I think it lead to worse perfomance.  I
had to do a hashmap look up of the config every time it had to handle an
invocation.

I disagree.  Juha implemented the mbean server based on interceptors for
the same reason most of jboss is based on interceptors.

I think there should only be one kind of interceptor stack, used for
mbeans, clients, aspects, ejbs.  In the server, what's on the top makes it
an mbean.  In a client, it can be the proxy.  For aspects, maybe something
else.  But we only need one kind of interceptor (as in "interface that all
interceptors implement" and "how do we invoke each interceptor in the
stack", not as in "they should all be stateless/ful).

For ejbs, this will translate into a slightly odd kind of mbean, since
there won't exactly be one particular object at the end of the stack, but
rather the instance will get selected by one of the interceptors.

There are kind of 3 kinds of state:

Configuration of interceptor instances of the same class, conceptually from
some kind of interceptor factory.  This should definitely be kept in the
interceptor instance.  Related to this is "which interceptors are in the
stack".  Both of these are currently recorded in jboss.xml as a config-name
for ejb stacks.

State of interceptor instances depending not on stack name but on identity
the "top of stack object".  This includes, for ejbs, stuff like local jndi
environment, security proxy instances, tx-method associations.  I think
this is what we are debating.  I think it will lead to significantly
simpler stack management and clearer thinking about interceptors to store
this in a hashmap at the top of the stack.  If this state info is stored in
the interceptors, you need an instance of the interceptor for each "top of
stack object".  If it is store in the "top of stack object", you only need
one instance of each interceptor for each stack definition.

Currently, most interceptors are stateless in this way, although many
already are stateless because they store the state info in the "top of
stack object".  I'm proposing that we formalize this and make the remaining
interceptors (such as security proxy) use this model as well.

Thirdly, there is state from the method invocation.  I think everyone
agrees that this state should stay in the method invocation, and we should
not create and configure a stack for each invocation.

Yes there should be only one kind of interceptor stack.  This is the Aspect
framework (all aspects are, are interceptors anyways).

JMX worries about deployment, dependencies, management, basically its a
lightweight component framework.  Aspects provide the interceptors.  If you
implement an MBean as an Aspect you can use the power of the Aspect
framework.  Complete separation.  As you said, there only needs to be one
kind of interceptor stack.  This is the Aspect Framework.

So both POJOs and MBeans can have interceptors via the Aspect Framework.
Unified.

Its not odd at all.  The object at the end of the stack is the Interceptor
that invokes on the actual EJB.

While you guys discussed this like a bunch of academics, I have almost

The changes I have made pass stateful information between interceptors

One more request: stateless vs stateful interceptors.  It is clear to me

interceptor lives in the CMP stack (if you coded your CMP stack with
interceptors).
You need to have that information from the client. The client can then
set the "READ-AHEAD" bucket to 3-5 or 20 or whatever it is that he wants
to display, the invocation carries that information under the
"READ-AHEAD" value and the interceptor reads it under that value *from
the invocation*.  It is my feeling that this is now a configuration
thingy passed by the XML files.  It is good as is, meaning we need the
defaults to be configured by the XML file for all the invocations but
let the Invocation overwrite them. 

Bottom line is that I believe the CMP optimization of READ-AHEAD is a
good example of both coding practices, in fact they show the *need* for
both.  

CMP will be an set of interceptors so this type of optimization will be 
trivial.

Based on the work I've already done, I think I can eliminate 
EntityContainer, StatefullSessionContainer, StatelessSessionContainer 
and MessageDrivenContainer and replace all of them with the single 
Container class plus some interceptors.  I'm not sure about this yet, 
but it looks like it will be a simple solution in the end.

we want to get this stuff under Hiram's aspect framework so that not every
subproject in JBoss uses a different interceptor mechanism.  Take a look at
Hiram's stuff.  ITs good.

sorry single container looks like a good idea.  It will probably be
refactored a bit more to fit in the Aspect stuff.
