Hi:

Thanks for the hint. The external type is all caps VARCHAR2. There is no surprise there. I will try out the Wonder Oracle plugin and see how it behaves.

Out of curiosity ..... Any chance the external types of those other locking attributes are not in 
all caps? "varchar2" vs "VARCHAR2"?

Hi:

We had an interesting problem today. We have an entity called ReviewerData 
which has a personId and fiscalYear compound primary key. It also has 3 more 
attributes, a CLOB field, a varchar2(4000) and an Integer attribute. All 
attributes except the CLOB are marked as a locking attribute (see attached 
image).

When we are updating the CLOB field and any of the other 2 attributes and call 
EC saveChanges, we are getting the error:

Expected a LOB count of 0 but could not fetch that many objects.

The issues is that there are 2 SQL statements being generated by the Oracle 
plugin within 1 transaction:

UPDATE REVIEWER_DATA SET HAS_DONE_EXTERNAL_REVIEW = ?, REVIEW_QUALIFICATIONS = 
EMPTY_CLOB() WHERE (PERSON_ID = ? AND FISCAL_YEAR = ? AND DESCRIPTION_OF_WORK = ? AND 
HAS_DONE_EXTERNAL_REVIEW = ?) withBindings: 1:0, 2:97208, 3:2012, 4:"ABC", 5:1

SELECT t0.REVIEW_QUALIFICATIONS FROM REVIEWER_DATA t0 WHERE (t0.PERSON_ID = ? AND 
t0.FISCAL_YEAR = ? AND t0.DESCRIPTION_OF_WORK = ? AND t0.HAS_DONE_EXTERNAL_REVIEW = ?) 
FOR UPDATE withBindings: 1:97208, 2:2012, 3:"ABC", 4:1

When you see "SELECT ... FOR UPDATE" that is often a sign that something has 
gone wrong in EOF (e.g. you have hit a bug).  In this case, however, I think it is just 
trying to update the CLOB.


The SELECT statement fails, causing the error above. If I don't have a compound 
PK, only have a single PK attribute (personId), the SELECT statement only has 
one column in the where clause and all works great:

SELECT t0.REVIEW_QUALIFICATIONS FROM REVIEWER_DATA t0 WHERE (t0.PERSON_ID = ?) 
FOR UPDATE withBindings: 1:97208

I believe there is a bug in how the SQL is being generated. In the where clause 
it should only use the 2 PK attributes rather than all the lock attributes.

My question is how can I fix this? Is it the Oracle plugin? Wonder has an 
Oracle plugin, should I try that out first?


I would try that first.  Second, you could move REVIEW_QUALIFICATIONS to its 
own table with a generated PK and a 1-1 relationship from Reviewer Data.  There 
is a good chance that would avoid the problem.
