Hi All,
What happens if you call _p_deactivate() on a modified object but
before the modifications have been committed?
Do the modifications get lost or will they still be saved when the
next commit happens after the _p_deactivate()?
Under normal operation, the _p_deactivate call is ignored on a
modified object, so the changes are not lost (but _p_deactivate
accomplished nothing).
However, there is currently a bug that if you call _p_deactivate on a
new persistent object that has a database connection then the whole
thing will just be lost. I have a TODO to make a small test case of
this and put it in the collector. AIUI from Jim, fixing this
reliably will require some API changes.
