Re: Ibatis in the cloud

2010-01-18 Thread Simone Tripodi
Hi Glenn, I recently deployed a set of web services, realized on top of ibatis 2, in a cluster of 3 nodes; the application was installed in each node of the "cloud". The difficulty I had to face[1] is that, using memcached as a distribuited caching layer, since ibatis 2 keys generation is not uniqu

Does anyone have experience using Ibatis in an application that is deployed in a "cloud" environment? What, if any, customization or other constraints should I be facing? Thanks!

Unfortunately the data model is very thin (it's a database representation of a very large series of XSD schema documents), with "types" that have "properties", where each "type" has a "parent", and each "property" has a "type" as well (among other things). Big objects and N+1 selects don't bother

That's exactly what should happen. Here's the catch: you should only depend on lazy loading OR caching... not both. I would suggest caching. Try disabling lazy loading and use one sqlSession instance. Clinton On Mon, Jan 18, 2010 at 9:37 AM, Dave Rafkind wrote: > Unfortunately the data model

Hmm... it looks to me like your situation is a perfect storm. * You're loading lots of objects. * You're loading big objects. * You are guaranteeing an N+1 selects problem with that for loop. No one of these situations should create a major problem, but all three together are a guaranteed disa

Ok, that's some good information, I understand that you should marshall your objects with care. Unfortunately for me at some point I will have to marshall every single one of my database rows into an object graph. However what I took from your advice was not to be so stingy in re-using the session

For me, this didn't work. The Set eventually contained String objects. Here's how I solved it: I have a class called Customer which contains a a set of Service. The customer is saved in CUSTOMERS and the services in CUSTOMER_SERVICES. The Enum class public enum Service { CLEANING; } My

I wrote a generic EnumTypeHandler some time ago which made things quite a bit easier. I don't have access to the source right now but I'll try to dig it out this evening if needed, it's fairly basic and straightforward (and I think even based off some protoype handler I found somewhere else). Othe

enums as ordinals?

2010-01-18 Thread Stephen Friedrich
By default iBATIS expects enums to be stored in the DB using the enum _names_. I am working with a legacy DB where the enum's ordinal is stored instead. On a global level I managed to do this by patching the default EnumTypeHandler. The only alternative that I currently see is to write a specific
