Hi Jim, could you provide some same sample code? If your entity has values set before persist is called, then I can't imagine how they would disappear when the PrePersist callback method is invoked. Example 3.5.3 in the JPA 2.0 spec shows that you should be able to access persistent fields/properties of your entity in the context of a PrePersist callback.

Dezember 2013 17:15 To: users@openjpa.apache.org Subject: Callback before items are persisted Hi, I want to modify a couple of persisted columns in an entity based on data in other columns (basically caching some stuff from related entities). I was under the impression that a lifecycle listener on PrePersist would make this easy - but that is called from within the call to persist, which is before any columns in the new entity have any values at all. There doesn't seem to be any callback that is called just before an object is written the database, is this true? Thanks.
