Hi I am using the latest version of Cayenne with Tapestry 4.0.1.
I am having a bit of trouble using nested dataContexts. I would like the user to be able to create a new object in a wizrd style application but have the option to cancel half way through the stages. I have tried a few different options and noe seem to work. In the first instance I tried the nested datacontext like this: AClass parent; //assume this exists and is in the threaded context DataContext childContext = this.getDataContext().createChildContext() // this.getDataContext() is the threaded context AnotherClass newObject = (AnotherClass)childContext.createAndRegisterNewObject(AnotherClass.class); AClass localParentObject = (AClass)childContext.localObject( parent.getObjectId(),null); object.setParent(localParent); //do other stuff here like set other properties // now save to parent childContext.commitChangesToParent(); For some reason I seem to get the parent having two children, not just the one! I assume it is because the changes in the childContext are propagated to the parent context so as a result the first setParent call adds the child to the parent and on commit changes the child is added again to the parent. So I tried to have separate dataContexts instead by doing this DataContext anotherContext = DataContext.createDataContext() AnotherClass newObject = (AnotherClass)anotherContext.createAndRegisterNewObject(AnotherClass.class); AClass localParentObject = (AClass)anotherContext.localObject( parent.getObjectId(),null); object.setParent(localParent); //do other stuff here like set other properties // now save to parent newObject = (AClass)this.getDataContext().localObject(newObject.getObjectId (),null); I get errors like Can't build a query for relationship '...' for temporary id: Does anyone knew what I am doing wrong? many thanks for your help. -- -- e
