RuntimeUnenhancedClasses support can go into a "half baked" state
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Key: OPENJPA-377
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OPENJPA-377
Project: OpenJPA
Issue Type: Bug
Components: kernel
Affects Versions: 1.0.0
Reporter: Kevin Sutter
Fix For: 1.0.1, 1.1.0
As we continue to push OpenJPA through it's paces in an application server
environment, I've hit a problem with the new dynamic unenhanced classes support
that I haven't been able to figure out yet. Maybe by writing this JIRA issue,
it will ring a bell with Patrick or one of the other developers.
Here's an example of the callstack that we get. In this case, the container
classloader transformer doesn't process the Entity for some reason. (I realize
that this the root cause of the problems, but I don't think we fail like we
do.) Since the Entity has not been enhanced, we fall into the dynamic
unenhanced classes support. We determine that we're persistence capable, but
something wasn't quite "baked" yet since we hit this exception:
<openjpa-1.1.0-SNAPSHOT-r420667:573398M nonfatal general error>

(I also run across this same type of problem in a Java SE environment when
running within Eclipse. But, at the time, I got around the problem by just
running the PCEnhancer tool beforehand. And, since this was not the main
problem I was driving, I forgot about it. I'm just stating this to indicate
that this not just a Container classloader issue.)
In both cases, it does seem like it's related to creating or using
ApplicationIds. But, I haven't dug down deeper yet.
On a related note, I have two other questions related to this scenario:
o When we are running in a Container environment, should the
RuntimeUnenhancedClasses support be turned off? Since the Container is
supposed to be intercepting these Entities and passing them through the
Transformer interface, should the RuntimeUnenhancedClasses support be turned
off so that we can more easily detect when this is not working as expected?
o I think the "unsupported" option for the openjpa.RuntimeUnenhancedClasses
property is hiding a more meaningful message. For example, if I run with
"warn" option, I get the warning message (runtime-optimization-disabled) and a
null is returned. In this scenario, the processing continues and then I get
this message:
<openjpa-1.1.0-SNAPSHOT-r420667:573398M nonfatal user error>
org.apache.openjpa.persistence.ArgumentException: Attempt to cast instance
"..." to
PersistenceCapable failed. Ensure that it has been enhanced.
But, if I run with the "unsupported" option, then the only message I get is the
(runtime-optimization-disabled) exception. Although it still indicates an
error exists, it's not as clear as the "PersistenceCapable" message. Not sure
if we should re-think the "warn" vs "unsupported" argument, or maybe just an
update to the message text for (runtime-optimization-disabled).
Anyway, the main problem is the ClassCastException.
Thanks,
Kevin
