I don't seem to be getting any different behavior.  Looking at ObjectCacheFactory:


public class ObjectCacheFactory extends ConfigurableFactory
{

        private static ObjectCacheFactory INSTANCE = null;

    private ObjectCache CACHE = null;

    public static ObjectCacheFactory getInstance()
    {
        if (INSTANCE == null)
        {
                INSTANCE = new ObjectCacheFactory();
        }
        return INSTANCE;
    }

    public ObjectCache createObjectCache(PersistenceBroker broker)
    {
        if (CACHE == null)
        {



There's only a single ObjectCacheFactory stored as a static instance and it holds a 
single instance of a cache, so there's still only one global cache.  Shouldn't the 
createObjectCache method create a new cache every time or at least one per broker? 
ObjectCacheDefaultImpl is already maintaining a static map so it wouldn't have any 
impact on it, it would still act as a global cache but it would mean that 
ObjectCachePerBrokerImpl would work as intended.

Hi Lance,

By default OJB uses one large global cache.
To achieve proper isolation you have to tell OJB to use one cache per 
Broker:
In OJB.properties you have to configure to use
org.apache.ojb.broker.cache.ObjectCachePerBrokerImpl
as objectcache implementation

cheers,
Thomas
