Hi,

As I'm ramping up our app and CDO to stop single threading, I am facing
some issues right now. I know it's not the first set of questions in
this regard, but hopefully I get better at it.

Right we operate our client with a single session. Different part of the
code will request to open a view or transaction.

As I'm now launching some processes that need to update a status in the
repository, as independent Eclipse jobs, my multi-core laptop has a big
tendency to force all of them to request a transaction around the same time.

I had a simple session.openTransaction() and that would deadlock very
badly. Reading the docs I noticed that this is supposed to be for new
Resources, so I changed it to session.openTransaction(rs).

Now I am getting "Only one view per repository can be open for the same
resource set" on the client and a bunch of:
org.eclipse.emf.cdo.server.ContainmentCycleDetectedException: Parent
(OID185837) is already locked for containment changes on the server
side. I'm not sure if it is for the same transactions right now or if my
code then tries to do something else.

So, to point 1, what is the right way to obtain a transaction here. Do I
need to have multiple sessions? Do I need to use getView(String
repositoryUUID) on the viewset to see if a transaction already exist and
to synchronize somewhere? Or apply a very different pattern (queue
requests and process from the queue)?

On point2, what is the solution? Is it to fix point 1 or is it something
else altogether?

Thanks for your help
Alain

That's bad. If you think that's not caused by misusage (I have no
clue how you could misuse that :P ) you should submit a bugzilla. I
fear this type of problem is very hard to reproduce. Maybe you can
try to write a test case? Please have a look at our other test cases
to see how easy it is.<br>

After reading the article I refered to above it should be clear that
you need two distinct resource sets for two separate transactions to
the same repository.<br>
<br>
You can open multiple transactions on the same resource set but then
they must belong to different repositories (if objects from
different transactions/repositories are to be modified in such a
resource set the transactions should be wrapped in a
CDOXATransaction).<br>

This is something that *can* happen on the server in situations with
massive parallel commits if the commits invlove tree moves:<br>
<img src="cid:part2.00050601.03090804@xxxxxxxx" alt=""><br>
So this situation is basically a conflict situation, although there
is no object that is directly modified by both transactions. It has
to be handled in the client code just like other conflicts.<br>

I guess just the simple session.openTransaction() that yu tried
first.<br>

No.<br>

Removing concurrency is obviously an option to deal with concurrency
problems :P<br>

The latter. See above ;-)<br>
