Please post information about how you entity is defined and mapped.  (java, annotations, orm.xml, deployment xml)

Comment 2 Ecmel Ercan 2011-06-03 07:26:04 EDT

@MappedSuperclass
@Customizer(EntityCustomizer.class)
public abstract class Persistent implements Serializable {

    private static final long serialVersionUID = 1L;

    @Id
    @GeneratedValue(strategy = GenerationType.IDENTITY)
    private Long id;

    @Version
    private Integer version;

    protected Persistent() {
        super();
    }

    public Long getId() {
        return id;
    }

    public Integer getVersion() {
        return version;
    }
}

@Entity
public class Account extends Persistent {

    private static final long serialVersionUID = 1L;

    ...
}


In EntityCustomizer I set the HistoryPolicy. This works with SEQUENCE but not with IDENTITY.

Tested only on PostgreSQL.

This also is a problem with MS SQL Server

Comment 5 Nick Padilla 2012-07-16 13:30:32 EDT

This is also a problem with MySQL but using SEQUENCE or TABLE strategies do not work.

Comment 6 Nicolas Marcotte 2015-03-06 16:39:53 EST

here is a crude hack to fix this problem:

  HistoryPolicy historyPolicy = new HistoryPolicy(){      
            @Override
            public void logicalInsert(ObjectLevelModifyQuery writeQuery, boolean isUpdate) {
                Sequence oldValue = writeQuery.getDescriptor().getSequence();
                writeQuery.getDescriptor().setSequence(new Sequence(){

                    @Override
                    public boolean shouldAcquireValueAfterInsert() {
                        return false;
                    }

                    @Override
                    public boolean shouldUseTransaction() {
                       return false;
                    }

                    @Override
                    public Object getGeneratedValue(Accessor accessor, AbstractSession writeSession, String seqName) {
                         return new Object();
                    }

                    @Override
                    public Vector getGeneratedVector(Accessor accessor, AbstractSession writeSession, String seqName, int size) {
                        return new Vector();
                    }

                    @Override
                    public void onConnect() {
                       
                    }

                    @Override
                    public void onDisconnect() {
                        
                    }
                
                });
                
                super.logicalInsert(writeQuery, isUpdate);
                writeQuery.getDescriptor().setSequence(oldValue);
            }  
            
        };

A better correction of this bug

The quick and dirty hack I posted friday was not thread safe. It can lead to data corruption under load. Here is a cleaner, thread safe, fix.

The simplest way I found to fix this bug was, to clone the descriptor in the initialise method and to replace the sequance, with a DummySequance that does nothing.
