Spring Web Flow Hibernate Concurrency

[ritesh_bil]

Hi,

I am using Bitronix transaction manager in my project with Hibernate 3.x Annotation on the beans.
The service layer contains @Transactional annotation.Moreover we're using Version for concurrency.
However, Hibernate somehow does NOT throw StaleObjectException even if new version record is present in the database table.
In a nutshell, multiple users can update same record.
Interesting, in the Test class I am able to re-produce the same condition and get StaleObjectException.
Any guesses why Spring web flow & Hibernate combination not doing "concurrency" check?
Appreciate your help!

Interesting, but I don't really have any idea why it's not working. I take it you're reattaching the detached object to the Hibernate session when calling back into the transactional service layer?

Hi Erwin,

Thank you for the reply.

Yes, in service layer I am saving the parent object with child objects in it.

We debugged the logs (Both Hibernate & Spring) and new transaction is started and ended every time.
The service layer class is having @Transactional annotation and I see it's "org.springframework.transaction.annotation.Transa ctional" class.But I think it is fine as it's an abstraction and SHOULD take care of Hiberate Transaction too.

Any thoughts?

Thank you,
