I printed the list of updated objects and my object is there with the
persistance state to MODIFIED.
And I am committing the right dataContext : dataContext2
Event then, committing one or the other data context should write the
changes to the database.

This might not help much, but... I've been wrestling with a somewhat
similar issue, and it turned out to be a silly bug of my own. I wasn't
committing in the right DataContext. I'm reminded of that when you say
"Still not working" after trying Marcin's suggestion of touching some
attribute of the localObject. If it's still not saving after that,
maybe the object isn't in the DataContext you're committing. Could you
print the list of updated objects in the DC just before the commit?
Something like this:
Collection objects = dc.newObjects();
objects.addAll(dc.modifiedObjects());
objects.addAll(dc.deletedObjects());
Iterator it = objects.iterator();
while (it.hasNext()) {
log.debug(it.next());
}

Hi,
Still not working.
Is it the normal behavior of localObject() or is it a bug ?
It seems to me that there should be a way to copy a modified object to
a different dataContext
while keeping it's modification info.
Maybe I'm not doing it the right way.
Maybe localObject() is not the right way.
Somebody know the right way ?

Hi
I'm not using localObject with prototype at the moment. I had some
problems with it as well.
Please try after doing localObject retouching some attribute, like
dataObjectInContext2.setName(getName()), commit and see if this will
put to the database only the new name.

Hi,
It should work but it does not.
context2.commitChanges() won't send an update statement to the
database if the object was modified in context1.
I think it's not working because context2 was not notified of the
changes made to dataObject while it was in context1.
Is it working for you ?
Try the code from the previous post. You will see that nothing gets
written to the database on commit.
If it does well..... there's something wrong somewhere :)

Hello !
I think you have it all right, but just in case:
dataObjectInContext2=
context2.localObject(dataObjectInContext1.getObjectId(),
dataObjectInContext1);
dataObjectInContext2.setPersistenceState(dataObjectInContext1.getPersistenceState()
); //In case that the object 1 state is NEW
context2.commitChanges();
Is it that dead simple or you are doing some more things ?
I don't see a reason why it is not working for you.

Hi Marcin,
I've already looked at localObject() and it's not good.
Here's why ?
You have a data object : dataObjectInContext1
You modify a property : dataObjectInContext1.setName("the new name");
You copy it to the second dataContext and modify it's
persistenceState
dataObjectInContext2=
context2.localObject(dataObjectInContext1.getObjectId(),
dataObjectInContext1);
dataObjectInContext2.setPersistenceState(PersistenceState.MODIFIED);
Everything is ok till now but here is the problem :
dataObjectInContext2.commitChanges();
Nothing will be written to the database because context2 did not
track changes of dataObjectInContext2.
That's why i'm not using localObject().
Is there a way that dataObjectInContext2 will be committed using
localObject() ?
I'm using Cayenne 1.2

Hello Jonathan
Please take a closer look on the localObject() method.
Straight from javadocs :
"Returns an object local to this DataContext and matching the
ObjectId. If prototype is not null, local object is refreshed
with the prototype values.
In case you pass a non-null second parameter, you are responsible
for setting correct persistence state of the returned local
object, as generally there is no way for Cayenne to determine the
resulting local object state."
If you have still problems please mention what version of cayenne
are you using.

Hi, maybe someone can help me here.
I'm trying to copy a dataObject to another dataContext while
keeping
it's modified state so that it will be correctly committed to
the db by the second dataContext.
Let say we have an entity with an attribute Name and a
relationship Category.
The object 1000001 exist in the db and has a Name and a Category
//Create the dataContext
DataContext dc1= DataContext.createDataContext();
DataContext dc2= DataContext.createDataContext();
//Get object from db. Modify the name.
Animal from= (Animal) DataObjectUtils.objectForPK(dc1, new
ObjectId("Animal", "animalId", 1000001));
from.setName("XXX" + new SecureRandom().nextInt());
//Get local object to dc2
//I cannot use dc2.localObject(from.getObjectId(), from);
//because the dc2 won't see the modification made in dc1.
Animal to= (Animal) dc2.localObject(from.getObjectId(), null);
dc2.getObjectStore().resolveHollow(to);
//Copy the attributes from object1 to object2 String attName;
ObjAttribute objAttribute;
ObjEntity objEntity=
from.getObjectContext().getEntityResolver().lookupObjEntity(to);
Iterator attributes = objEntity.getAttributes().iterator();
while (attributes.hasNext()) {
objAttribute = (ObjAttribute) attributes.next();
attName= objAttribute.getName();
to.writeProperty(attName, from.readPropertyDirectly(attName));
}
dc2.commitChanges();
System.out.println(from);
System.out.println(to);
Everything is committed correctly to the db but the object from
has now a Category = null
The problem is after the dc2.commitChanges() and
it comes from
org.objectstyle.cayenne.event.EventManager.DispatchThread.run()
witch is firing an event to set the relationship Category to null.
I don't know why it is doing that.
I am doing something wrong ? Is it a bug in cayenne ?
And i need context synchronization so turning it off is not an
option.
I really need help on this one, can someone help me ?
