[Teneo] Constraint validation exception, column ... cannot be null [message #1015971] Mon, 04 March 2013 12:54 Go to next message
Eclipse UserFriend
Hello,

I'm trying to delete a containment tree. Two of the contained objects
have a bidirectional reference between them. One direction has a
multiplicty of 1..1, so it is required. However, upon deletion, I'm
getting a Constraint validation saying that "column ... cannot be null".
It seems that during the delete, Teneo is doing an intermediate update
on the object which indeed violates the constraint.

How would I solve that best?

And since this seems to be a very basic question: is there a FAQ which I
failed to find where this is descibed?

Thanks
Marius

Hi Marius,
Mandatory bidirectional 1-1 are not that common, but occasionally happen. But indeed a case for which a FAQ entry makes
sense... Will add it when I understand better what a solution could be.

I know that hibernate sometimes does this, to temporary set a foreign key to null when deleting.

Can you enter a bugzilla with an example model? Also which object structure/graph you are trying to delete? This will
help me to reproduce it.

gr. Martin

Note that in my case only one direction is mandatory. The other is 0..1.
Surely this is not an exotice use case, or is it?!

Could you elaborate, please? Sorry I'm still pretty much of a
Teneo/Hibernate n00b.

Thanks
