Hi, I'm trying to use default fetch groups to obtain fields at once (not on demand) in my entity:
public class Survey { @PrimaryKey @Persistent(valueStrategy = IdGeneratorStrategy.IDENTITY) @Extension(vendorName="datanucleus", key="gae.encoded-pk", value="true") private String idSurvey; @Persistent private String name; @Persistent private Date dateFrom; @Persistent private Date dateUntil; @Persistent private String author; @Persistent(mappedBy = "survey", defaultFetchGroup = "true") private List<Response> responseList; } public class Response { @PrimaryKey @Persistent(valueStrategy = IdGeneratorStrategy.IDENTITY) @Extension(vendorName="datanucleus", key="gae.encoded-pk", value="true") private String idResponse; @Persistent(defaultFetchGroup = "true") private Survey survey; //list of all Answers in this Response @Persistent(mappedBy="response", defaultFetchGroup = "true") private List<Answer> answerList; } I'm getting the entities with a method in a DAO class, so I need to open and close the PM: public Object getObjectByID(Class objectClass, String objectID) { PersistenceManager pm = PMFactory.get().getPersistenceManager (); Object o = null; try { o = pm.getObjectById(objectClass, objectID); pm.retrieve(o); } catch (JDOException jdoe) { jdoe.printStackTrace(); } finally { //pm.close(); } return o; } When I fetch a Survey I can access the responseList and all fields in Responses in the list. But when I fetch a Response, although I can see the Survey (I'm using debugger in NetBeans to watch the variables), every field of the Survey (except surveyID) is null, even if it has been set before. So basically I can access child's fields after obtaining the parent, but not via versa. if I change the code in DAO to : o = pm.getObjectById(Response.class, responseID); pm.retrieve(o.getSurvey()); it works. Also, I could make it with not closing the PM - when the fields are accessed they are being refreshed. What is happening?
