Hi Andrus
I'm using cayenne HEAD, built just week ago. I wonder if the fact that you are seeing different behaviour has anything to do with fact that my test is in "real" application, while yours is a junit test with mockup objects ?

Hi Marcin,

Just got some time to try it out. I am seeing somewhat different (still incorrect) behavior (is this because of the difference in Cayenne version?). I need to investigate this some more, so I opened this bug report:

http://issues.apache.org/cayenne/browse/CAY-742

Hello.
I just wanted to share my recent findings about deleteObject() and localObject() in remote cayenne

(assuming that there is only one apple in the db)

Apple apple1 = (Apple)context1.performQuery(Apple.class).get(0);
Apple apple2 = (Apple)context2.performQuery(Apple.class).get(0);

context1.deleteObject(apple1);
now:
context1.getGraphManager().registeredNodes() is empty
context2.getGraphManager().registeredNodes() is also empty which is great, but

apple2.getObjectContext() returns context2, and that is confusing...

How come that the context lost reference to the object, but object had not lost the reference to the context ? Is that a bug or some limitation ?


also the apple2.getPersistenceState() is commited. I'm not clear at all if that is difficult to change.

this all leads to yet another problem, where
context3.localObject(apple2) gives a hollow object with some fields filled, but the object cannot be faulted. (A nice FaultFailureException is thrown, but it is sometimes too late.) I'm overriding localObject behaviour in my application, but it would be nice if cayenne dealt with it.

My idea is to have two localObject methods:
- new localObject() could take Persistent as a parameter, this will allow to check if the incoming object has a context and in what persistent state is it: * if getObjectContext() == null and getPersistentState() == NEW than the object can be copied/inserted to the context * if getObjectContext() != null and getPersistentState() = COMMITTED or MODIFIED than the object can be copied/inserted to the context
        * else it cannot proceed, and some exception is thrown
- old localObject() could be more restrictive and throw Exception instead of returning a HOLLOW object.

Oh, and javadocs for localObject are a bit out of date: " (...) *all* objects in the source *list* must be(...)"

With regards
Marcin
