Daniel Gajdos commented on OPENJPA-177:
---------------------------------------
In official manual for OpenJPA, chapter 13.2. Schema Factory
(http://people.apache.org/~mprudhom/openjpa/site/openjpa-project/manual/ref_guide_schema_info.html#ref_guide_schema_info_factory)
I found:
When using this factory, it is important that your mapping metadata correctly
represent your database's foreign key constraints so that OpenJPA can order its
SQL statements to meet them.
And my question is how is OpenJPA ordering it;s statements when as you can see
it is inserting Application first and then Person and it takes care about
@ForeignKey constraint by inserting null value in Application and then updating
this value to PersonID. Is it true that OpenJPA doesn't take care about
non-nullable constraints? Another interesting thing is that after changing
nullable to false it does not change the DB schema by adding not null
constraint, it adds this constraint only when creating TABLE. Is this correct?

> Key: OPENJPA-177
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OPENJPA-177
> Project: OpenJPA
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: jpa
> Affects Versions: 0.9.6
> Environment: Windows XP, IBM 32-bit SDK 5.0, WebSphere 6.1
> Reporter: Daniel Gajdos
>
> When using on entity Application
> @OneToOne(cascade = CascadeType.ALL)
> @JoinColumn(name = "C_PERSON_ID", nullable=false)
> @ForeignKey
> private Person person;
> and on entity Person using generated ID, it fails on inserting Application
> because of performing db actions in this order:
> INSERT INTO T_APPLICATION (C_ID, C_APPLICATION_NUMBER, C_APPLIED_DATE,
> C_STATUS) VALUES (:1, :2, :3, :4) - here it tries to insert null value as
> C_PERSON_ID, which is not permited because of nullable=false
> declaration. This declaration creates NOT NULL constraint on C_PERSON_ID.
> INSERT INTO NSVISP.T_PERSON (C_ID, C_BIRTH_DATE, C_FIRST_NAME, C_LAST_NAME)
> VALUES (:1, :2, :3, :4)
> UPDATE NSVISP.T_APPLICATION SET C_PERSON_ID = :1 WHERE C_ID = :2
> Error reported from DB:
> org.apache.openjpa.lib.jdbc.ReportingSQLException: ORA-01400: cannot insert
> NULL into ("T_APPLICATION"."C_PERSON_ID")
> Is there any chance to change the order in which this operations are
> executed? On this type of constraint we have to insert Person before
> inserting Application and include the generated Person Id into insert
> statement for Application. Otherwise we have to deffer the NOT NULL
> constraint which can be dangerous and it is not defered initialy.
