Subject: [Xdoclet-user] hashCode() in genereated pk

> Looked in template for pk from 1.2b2 that hashCode() is used in 
> the 
> same way as in the old ejbdoclet that we still use. We recently 
> had a 
> problem with this implementation.
> 
> Hashcode is initiated to Integer.MIN_VALUE and calculated only if 
> the 
> cached hashcode is equal to Integer.MIN_VALUE. And that works ok 
> as 
> long as the PK stays within a JVM. We had a situation where this 
> didn't 
> work that well. JBoss uses the PK as a key in internal entity 
> caches. 
> We had a situation where a PK was sent within a bigger dataobject 
> to a 
> client JVM. There some entity fields where changed and then sent 
> back 
> to the server. What happened during the deserialization was that 
> the 
> transient hashcode was initiated to 0 and hence never recalculated 
> since it differed from Integer.MIN_VALUE. Back on the server a 
> findByPrimaryKey was issued using this 'incorrect' PK which 
> resulted in 
> a load from database and a second instance of the same entity in 
> cache.
> We solved this in our ejbdoclet by changing hashcode to be 
> initiated to 
> 0 instead of Integer.MIN_VALUE. Could also be done by extending 
> the 
> check if hashcode should be calculated to include test if it is 0.
> 
> Whats your oppinion about this? I think the change should be 
> implemented in current codebase.
