Hi,
I have a problem with transient features and CDO. This is very specific and probably may only be understood by people who deeply know about the internals of CDO. So this is the best time to skip this post if you are not.

We are using CDO together with Papyrus. If I create a diagram with stereotypes a couple of stereotype decorations will be created when the diagram is rendered (NOTATION_DECORATIONNODE). It seems like these decorations are meant to be transient as they are added as transient children. Nevertheless they are attached to the CDOTransaction when the decoration objects are attached to the resource.

This can be seen in this stack here:

Once the objects are attached to the transaction they are commited with the next commit. So whenever a Diagram with stereotype is loaded into a CDOTransaction and is displayed in a DiagramEditor, the decorations are created making the CDOTransaction dirty. Next commit possibly writes hundrets of actually transient objects into the repository. This happens over and over whenever the diagram is loaded in a new CDOTransaction.

I would propose to change the implementation of CDOResourceImpl
in such a way:

  public void attached(EObject object)
  {
    if (!FSMUtil.isTransient(this))
    {
      InternalCDOView view = cdoView();
      if (view instanceof InternalCDOTransaction) // Bug 376075
      {
        InternalCDOTransaction transaction = (InternalCDOTransaction)view;
        InternalCDOObject cdoObject = FSMUtil.adapt(object, transaction);

        if (CDOUtil.isLegacyObject(cdoObject))
        {
          if (!FSMUtil.isTransient(cdoObject))
          {
            // Bug 352204
            return;
          }
        }

        // Do not attach if container itself is transient
        EObject eContainer = cdoObject.eContainer();
        if (eContainer != null)
        {
          CDOObject cdoContainer = CDOUtil.getCDOObject(eContainer);
          if (cdoContainer != null && cdoContainer.cdoState() == CDOState.TRANSIENT)
          {
            return;
          }
        }

        // Do not attach if feature is transient
        EReference containmentFeature = object.eContainmentFeature();
        if (containmentFeature != null && !EMFUtil.isPersistent(containmentFeature))
        {
          return;
        }

        attached(cdoObject, transaction);
      }
    }

  }



Note that there is another proposed fix that checks if the container itself is transient.

I am sure that the described behaviour is faulty. I just wonder if this is the right place for a fix. I think only non transient objects should be attached to a CDOResource - right? On the other hand I wonder why this issue has not yet popped up? There are other transient features outside of the Notation model world - right?
And I have already found an issue with this fix because sometimes in the Notation model children are moved from transient to persistent and this is not recognized by CDO. Thus if the object is not attached during its transient phase it will not be correctly attached in the persistent phase which finally results in the creation of external references...

Anyone out there who can say something about this issue?

Thanks in advance
Thorsten
