You can use optimistic locking. When the user submits and they have outdated data, then you just merge the object's data with what is in the data store and show it back to the user for them to confirm it.

Hi Jesse Kuhnert <jkuhnert <at> gmail.com> writes: > hibernate.org This is a rather simplistic answer, however I have been away and read the documentation and am not convinced that this is providing a method that will warn a user if somebody else if already updating a record. Even this example of pessimistic locking appears to allow for previous data changes to be overwritten: http://forum.springframework.org/archive/index.php/t-10188.html What would convince me? An example of a read-for-update operation that returned a condition (or exception) indicating that the requested object was currently locked by another user. I'm yet to find that in Hibernate.
