Hello

I have two contexts containing the same entity.
- one contains the list of all entities of this type - ListContext
- second contains only one entity for editing - EditContext

I would like to notify the relevant context(s) when the object changes, so it needs to be refreshed.

Hmm... If those two contexts use the same ClientChannel, synchronization should be automatic. Of course it only happens on commit.

How can I do it ? I thought there was a notification mechanism in 3t-cayenne, but I cant find a word about it anymore.

The even mechanism was simplified (you may say downgraded) compared to the earlier version. I need to updated the docs. You can listen to the ClientChannel events. To register a listener implement DataChannelListener and use EventUtil class to register it.

If you need to receive ongoing object events (i.e. property changes that by themselves do not result in commit), you can subclass CayenneContext and override 'propertyChanged'


What is the best way to force object to be re-faulted from database ? I tried to set persistence state to hollow but it does not work.

Yeah, unfortunately client invalidate functionality didn't make it to 1.2. One way to work around this is an explicit refresh query:

Query q = new ObjectIdQuery(oid, false, ObjectIdQuery.CACHE_REFRESH)
