Functional Specification: Dali Support for EclipseLink Caching and Optimistic Locking

bug 239137 - cache support

bug 239148 - optimistic locking support

Document History

Date Author Version Description & Notes
7-1-2008 Karen Butzke Draft

Project overview

This feature covers entity/mapped superclass level caching and optimistic locking supported by the EclipseLink JPA extension.

Goals:

  • Add JPA Details view widgets for the Cache, ExistenceChecking, OptimisticLocking annotations
  • Add JPA Details view widgets for eclipselink-orm.xml cache, existence-checking and optimistic-locking elements
  • Provide the appropriate defaults and validation for these settings

Concepts

Present any concepts relevant to the feature.

Requirements / Functionality

Caching

  • @Cache supported in Entity and MappedSuperclass classes.
  • Cache Type options
    • Default (Weak with Soft subcache)
    • Weak with Soft Subcache -> CacheType.SOFT_WEAK
    • Weak with Hard Subcache -> CacheType.HARD_WEAK
    • Weak -> CacheType.WEAK
    • Soft -> CacheType.SOFT
    • Full -> CacheType.FULL
    • Cache -> CacheType.CACHE - do we want to support this?? We didn't in the mapping workbench
    • None -> CacheType.NONE
  • Coordination Type
    • Default (Send Object Changes)
    • Send Object Changes
    • Invalidate Changed Objects
    • Send New Objects with Changes
    • None
  • @ExistenceChecking supported in Entity and MappedSuperclass classes.
    • Default (Check Cache)
    • Check Cache -> ExistenceType.CHECK_CACHE
    • Check Cache then Database -> ExistenceType.CHECK_DATABASE
    • Assume Existence -> ExistenceType.ASSUME_EXISTENCE
    • Assume Non-Existence -> ExistenceType.ASSUME_NON_EXISTENCE
  • Shared Cache
    • What should we label this instead? Possibly options are 'Cache in L2 Cache' or 'Maintain in L2 Cache'. In the @Cache annotation it is just 'shared'.
    • If set to false then the panel is disabled and all Cache settings are removed. You will be left with @Cache(shared=false) in the java source.

Optimistic Locking

  • @OptimisticLocking supported in Entity and MappedSuperclass classes.
  • Type Options
    • Default (Version Column)
    • All Columns -> OptimisticLockingType.ALL_COLUMNS
    • Changed Columns -> OptimisticLockingType.CHANGED_COLUMNS
    • Selected Columns -> OptimisticLockingType.SELECTED_COLUMNS
    • Version Column -> OptimisticLockingType.VERSION_COLUMN
  • Validation
    • Type is 'Selected Columns' but no columns are selected
    • Selected Columns must be mapped and must not be primary keys
    • If using Optimistic Locking with anything other than Version Column, the @Version annotation will be ignored (warning, not error, for this)
    • If Cascade is set and type is not Version Column, warning that it is not supported.

Option 2 for Optimistic Locking section

  • None is chosen if no @Version annotaiton on an attribute and no @OptimisticLocking on the Entity
  • Default (Version Column) is chosen if @Version exists on an attribute and @OptimisticLocking does not exist on the Entity
  • Choose a Column under Version Column or Default(Version Column) and the @Version annotation will be added to the attribute that corresponds to that Column and removed from other attributes
