Teneo: getChoiceOfValues(Object object) very long... [message #79049] Tue, 10 April 2007 09:37 Go to next message

Hi,

The method
public Collection getChoiceOfValues(Object object)
from
org.eclipse.emf.edit.provider.IItemPropertyDescriptor

can be very long while using EMF/Teneo because it seems a lot of requests
are sent by Hibernate.
Is there a basic way to avoid such a time consuming ?

Furthermore, it seems, these calls are made even if the data have not
changed between 2 calls.
Do you see something to avoid this too ?

Thx.

Hi Mat,
What does the method do in your case?
Is the method called for an ereference which refers to an type which has many instances in the db?

Hi,

Yes, my method is time consuming when calling it for a EReference that has
many objects.
So it seems very logical that it is time consuming !
Besides, in my context, this method can be called "recursively" since it
can be used in a "Copy objects" context. That is I want to copy the target
object and children of children... These children are not necesseraly
"econtainment" of other objects, the parent-to-child link is
functionnal-oriented and not container-to-containment oriented in my
context.

BUT.
I hoped it would not take so much time...
I guess I'm doing something wrong because I spend a lot of time in this
method...

There is no parametrization I should use ?

Thx

Hi Mat,
No there is no parametrization. Often paging is used to support the visualization of a choice from a
list of many objects. I would also advice to use the newest release of teneo as this one supports
hibernate proxies which makes it possible that also many-to-ones are loaded lazily.
Please check the hibernate manual for more information on hibernate proxying (and the elver.org
website).

If possible, you could consider specializing the property descriptor's
getChoiceOfValues methods to not search the entire set of all reachable
objects which is what it's currently doing in order to find all the
objects that are instances of the particular EReference's EClass. I
suppose you could also look into caching the result of either the whole
set, or of just the ones that match a particular EClass, but then you'd
get into issues of when to clear the cache (perhaps after a command is
executed).

Mat,
Refering to the post of Ed, you can use a hql query to only retrieve the objects of a specific type.

Hi Mat,
See my post after Ed. You can use a hql query to just query for a specific eclass. Hibernate
supports session caching as well as level 2 caching (between sessions).
