experienced some weird behaviour of JPA (EclipseLink and Hibernate) and I can't find it defined in the specs, so I hope someone can give me a hint.
Given the following scenario:
Entity C is assigned to table C
Entity B is an @Embeddable
- having a unidirectional @OneToOne reference to C (orphanRemoval=true)
Entity A is assigned to table A
- having an @Embedded reference to B
- having a unidirectional @OneToOne reference to C (orphanRemoval=true)
When I create an instance of
Code: [Select all] [Show/ hide]
a -------- (1 : 1) ------> c1
\----- (embedded) -----> b ------- (1 : 1) -------> c2
a having the 1:1 relation to c1 and having the relation to c2 via b and save it to the database, all SQL statements are created as expected. When I set both references to C (namely c1 and c2) to null and save the same entity again, I expect JPA to set the fields to null and delete the orphans afterwards.
Deletion of C takes place only for c1. c2 is not being deleted, though both fields are set to null.
The relations to C are are annotated as given below:
Code: [Select all] [Show/ hide]
@OneToOne(cascade = {PERSIST, MERGE, REFRESH}, orphanRemoval = true)
@JoinColumn(name = "<field_name>")
private C c;
This behaviour can be seen with all EclipseLink version starting from 2.3.3 up to 2.5.2-M1, as well as with Hibernate 4.3.4. EclipseLink only works (but showing the weird behaviour) when the entities are enhanced by static weaving. Without static weaving there is a NullPointerException in UnitOfWorkImpl.calculateChanges.
Code: [Select all] [Show/ hide]
java.lang.NullPointerException
at org.eclipse.persistence.internal.sessions.UnitOfWorkImpl.calculateChanges(UnitOfWorkImpl.java:696)
at org.eclipse.persistence.internal.sessions.RepeatableWriteUnitOfWork.writeChanges(RepeatableWriteUnitOfWork.java:438)
at org.eclipse.persistence.internal.jpa.EntityManagerImpl.flush(EntityManagerImpl.java:863)
at OrphanRemovalTest.saveFlushAndClear(OrphanRemovalTest.java:74)
at OrphanRemovalTest.testApp(OrphanRemovalTest.java:47)
Even using @PrivateOwned in conjunction with EclipseLink does not change anything.
Is there any explanation for this?
