Hello,

after having learned how to (successfully) generate my entities, the DAOs and stuff from my ecore-diagram, I'm stuck trying to deploy the servlets as in "org.eclipse.texo.web.example" to a Glassfish-instance.

My attempts setting the EntityManagerFactory to an injected @PersistenceUnit fail with

Quote:

Exception Description: Cannot use an EntityTransaction while using JTA.
at org.eclipse.persistence.internal.jpa.transaction.JTATransactionWrapper.getTransaction(JTATransactionWrapper.java:65)
at org.eclipse.persistence.internal.jpa.EntityManagerImpl.getTransaction(EntityManagerImpl.java:1192)

at org.eclipse.emf.texo.server.web.WebServiceServlet.doGet(WebServiceServlet.java:57)
at javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet.service(HttpServlet.java:668)


How do I correctly setup things to support JTA-transactions, if that is supported at all?


Regards,
Jon

He Jon,
Indeed this needs to be extended/changed, you configure the JTA transactions using jndi?

Maybe you want to help to get this working for Texo. The idea is to implement a subclass of EntityManagerObjectStore and
override the begin, commit and rollback methods. These methods should then work in the correct way for JTA (either start
a new transaction or join a transaction). Then you can tell Texo to use the JTAEntityManagerObjectStore by doing this
when the application starts:
ComponentProvider.getInstance().register(EntityManagerObjectStore.class, JTAEntityManagerObjectStore.class);

Let me know what you think about this.

Hi Martin,

nice to hear that I was not entirely wrong when deriving from EntityManagerObjectStore, overriding the suspicious [begin|close|commit|rollback] methods and registering it in the ComponentProvider.

So far I just made those methods empty, except calling setRollbackOnly() in rollback -- and there's response from the webservice-servlets now :-).

I'm not sure if I understand enough about container-side transaction-handling to implement this in a really clean way, but I'd be happy to give back to this project!

Regards,
Jon

Hi Jon,
You were entirely correct in this approach :-). I think if the transaction is managed by the container then the object
store should not touch it. So looks fine to me. You can try to update through the webservice and see if the transaction
commits.

But if the transaction is/should be managed by the objectstore then something like this can maybe work:

public class JTAEntityManagerObjectStore {

private UserTransaction userTransaction;

public void begin() {
InitialContext initCtx = new InitialContext();
userTransaction = (UserTransaction)initCtx.lookup(
"java:comp/UserTransaction");
userTransaction.begin();
getEntityManager().joinTransaction();
}

public void commit() {
userTransaction.commit();
}

public void rollback() {
userTransaction.rollback();
}

public void close() {
userTransaction = null;
super.close();
}
}

Hi Martin,

thanks, I'll try my best to include these improvements.

But first - "Getting started some more":
Can you point me to any client-side example for consuming the (now working) webservices? :)
I'm not sure if JSONTexoResource is already finished [getting UnsupportedOperationExceptions], and I have to admit that I can't make sense of "org.eclipse.emf.texo.example1.rcp"..

Regards,
Jon

P.S.:
Forgive my ignorance - as you might have guessed the entire EMF-universe is new to me, and things are slightly overwhelming/confusing..

He Jon,
No problem, you can ask anything you want!

You maybe have seen this blog post:
http://martintaal.wordpress.com/2012/05/09/emft-texo-model-driven-rcp-using-texo-generated-jpa-entities/

The JSONTexoResource is not yet implemented, it is a to-do for me to get this done.... Will be a few weeks before I have
more time for it...

So maybe you can make use of the TexoResource as it is described in the blog post.

The example1.rcp makes use of the EPersistenceService for retrieving EObjects through jpa.

'lo Martin,

ok, so I'll try to get even more started with TexoResource and see how far I'll get.
Eventually this teaches me enough about the matter to support the JSONTexoResource-Implementation.

For now a big ThankYou for your time -- expect further questions soon :)

Regards,
Jon

Hi Martin,

Could you please tell if JTA-transactions are supported by Texo now...?
I'm having the same problem presented here by Jon and i am trying to do what you suggested to make it work on Glassfish 4.

Thanks in advance for your time.

Regards,
Monica

Hi Monica,
I did not incorporate the sample code I gave in the thread into Texo (if that's what you mean). I am not sure if it can
be done generically (let me know if it can, that I can detect the jndi name and that a jta transaction is ongoing).

Have you got it working with the sample code I provided?

Hi Martin,

First i tried creating a class JTAEntityManagerObjectStore which extends EntityManagerObjectStore with empty methods begin/commit/rollback/close and i initialized the UserTransaction in ExampleModelBrowserServlet. I also registered my class with ComponentProvider as you suggested and it worked.

Today, when i saw your reply i tried with your sample code and created an instance of the class aswell:
public class JTAEntityManagerObjectStore extends EntityManagerObjectStore {
	
	private UserTransaction userTransaction;
	private static JTAEntityManagerObjectStore instance = ComponentProvider.getInstance().newInstance(JTAEntityManagerObjectStore.class);
	
	public static JTAEntityManagerObjectStore getInstance(){
		return instance;
	}

	@Override
	public void begin() {
		InitialContext initCtx;
		try {
			initCtx = new InitialContext();
			userTransaction = (UserTransaction)initCtx.lookup("java:comp/UserTransaction");
			try {
				userTransaction.begin();
			} catch (NotSupportedException | SystemException e) {
				e.printStackTrace();
			}
		} catch (NamingException e) {
			e.printStackTrace();
		}
		
		getEntityManager().joinTransaction();
	}

	@Override
	public void commit() {
		try {
			userTransaction.commit();
		} catch (SecurityException | IllegalStateException | RollbackException
				| HeuristicMixedException | HeuristicRollbackException
				| SystemException e) {
			e.printStackTrace();
		}
	}
	
	@Override
	public void close() {
		
	}

	@Override
	public void rollback() {
		try {
			userTransaction.rollback();
		} catch (IllegalStateException | SecurityException | SystemException e) {
			e.printStackTrace();
		}
	}

	public UserTransaction getUserTransaction() {
		return userTransaction;
	}

	public void setUserTransaction(UserTransaction userTransaction) {
		this.userTransaction = userTransaction;
	}
}


Usage of this class in ExampleModelBrowserServlet:
//persist everything
JTAEntityManagerObjectStore jtaEM = JTAEntityManagerObjectStore.getInstance();
EntityManager entityManager = jtaEM.getEntityManager();
for(Object o: modelObjects){
	if(o instanceof Book){
		if(((Book) o).getCategory() != null){
			jtaEM.begin();
			entityManager.persist(o);
			jtaEM.commit();
		}
	}else{
		jtaEM.begin();
		entityManager.persist(o);
		jtaEM.commit();
	}
}



The
if(((Book) o).getCategory() != null)
i inserted as when i generate test data I get first book with null for category and it give me an error when i want to persist in database.

I am trying to find a way to do this generically as you asked and I'll let you know if I get to a solution Smile .

Next i need to make this example work in an OSGI container.

Thanks for your reply.

Best regards,
Monica.

Great Monica, if it somehow works generically and you want to contribute then I more than happy to add it into Texo's
code base!
