[DDC-2146] Detach and merge cascading not working properly

Thu, 15 Nov 2012 14:19:20 +0000

The problem is described in detail here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/13372305/doctrine-detaching-caching-and-merging

No one on IRC seems to know why this won't work. I was using 2.2.2, I've since updated to 2.3 and I'm still seeing the same issue.

[DDC-2033] Merge with multiple Associations to the same Entity

Wed, 23 Jan 2013 22:06:58 +0000

Let's say we have 2 Entities. User and Group and there's a ManyToMany Assocication and an additional ManyToOne (User as owning side and no inverse).

So a User can have as many Groups as he likes and one another with the ManyToOne Association which can be also in the ManyToMany Collection. (Could be the MainGroup or something)

I create a User and add a Group(already in DB) and set the same as the ManyToOne and Merge it. Everything works fine as long as the Group in ManyToOne Association is not in the ManyToMany.

If I var_dump the merged entity i can already see that one association is empty.

It looks like doctrine is writing just one association of that Group preferring which one comes first. So if i change the position of the properties in the class the written association changes, but doctrine never writes both.

The reason why I use merge is that I normally store the entity in the session and merge and flush it in another request. But this also happens in the same Request.

In the UnitofWork at Line 2050 and 2053 are the responsible doMerge Calls for as CascadeMerge Tagged Associations. If Doctrine gets there in the first place the doMerge for the Group is running through. In the Second call when the Group is again associated with the user the doMerge already exits at line 1658. That's ok but I think there's something missing so doctrine isn't creating the association.

[DDC-1942] problem with serialize/merging entities with aggregation

Wed, 27 Feb 2013 00:11:16 +0000

i have these two entities:

namespace nuevo_paquete;

class Clase_01{
	/**
	* @Id
	* @Column(name="id",type="integer",nullable=false)
	* @GeneratedValue
	*/
	protected $id;
        
        /**
	* @ManyToOne(targetEntity="\paquete_02\Clase_03", inversedBy="clase_01", fetch="EXTRA_LAZY", cascade={"detach","merge"})
	* @JoinColumn(name="clase_03", referencedColumnName="id")
	*/
	protected $clase_03;

        /**
	* @ManyToOne(targetEntity="\paquete_02\Clase_03", inversedBy="clase_01_1", fetch="EXTRA_LAZY", cascade={"detach","merge"})
	* @JoinColumn(name="clase_03_1", referencedColumnName="id")
	*/
	protected $clase_03_1;
}

namespace paquete_02;
class Clase_03{
   /**
	* @Id
	* @Column(name="id",type="integer",nullable=false)
	* @GeneratedValue
	*/
	protected $id;

        /**
	* @OneToMany(targetEntity="\nuevo_paquete\Clase_01", mappedBy="clase_03", fetch="EXTRA_LAZY", cascade={"detach"})
	*/
	protected $clase_01;
	
	/**
	* @OneToMany(targetEntity="\nuevo_paquete\Clase_01", mappedBy="clase_03_1", fetch="EXTRA_LAZY", cascade={"detach"})
	*/
	protected $clase_01_1;
}

Clase_01 have two aggregation association with Clase_03

Clase_01 ------> Clase_03

-----> Clase_03_1

when serialize an object of class Clase_01 and then unserialize, i lost the reference to the object of class Clase_03
but i can see Clase_03_1

ej:

$aux_orm = $em->find('nuevo_paquete\Clase_01', 1);
$em->detach($aux_orm);
$aux_s = serialize($aux_orm);
$aux_orm = unserialize($aux_s);

$aux_orm = $em->merge($aux_orm);
echo '['.$aux_orm->getId().']'; // [1]
echo '['.$aux_orm->getClase_03()->getId().']'; // [] expected : [1]
echo '['.$aux_orm->getClase_03_1()->getId().']'; // [1]

when i call get_clase_03() before detach the object, i can see the object Clase_03
ej:

$aux_orm = $em->find('nuevo_paquete\Clase_01', 1);
$aux_orm->getClase_03()->getId();

$em->detach($aux_orm);
$aux_s = serialize($aux_orm);
$aux_orm = unserialize($aux_s);

$aux_orm = $em->merge($aux_orm);
echo '['.$aux_orm->getId().']'; // [1]
echo '['.$aux_orm->getClase_03()->getId().']'; // [1]
echo '['.$aux_orm->getClase_03_1()->getId().']'; // [1]
