I am trying to load the full object graph for User, which contains a collection of decks, which then contains a collection of cards, as such: User:
@PersistenceCapable(detachable = "true")
@Inheritance(strategy = InheritanceStrategy.SUBCLASS_TABLE)
@FetchGroup(name = "decks", members = { @Persistent(name =
"_Decks") })
public abstract class User {
@PrimaryKey
@Persistent(valueStrategy = IdGeneratorStrategy.IDENTITY)
protected Key _ID;
@Persistent
protected String _UniqueIdentifier;
@Persistent(mappedBy = "_Owner")
@Element(dependent = "true")
protected Set<Deck> _Decks;
protected User()
{
}
}
Each Deck has a collection of Cards, as such:
@PersistenceCapable(detachable = "true")
@FetchGroup(name = "cards", members = { @Persistent(name =
"_Cards") })
public class Deck {
@PrimaryKey
@Persistent(valueStrategy = IdGeneratorStrategy.IDENTITY)
private Key _ID;
@Persistent
String _Name;
@Persistent(mappedBy = "_Parent")
@Element(dependent = "true")
private Set<Card> _Cards = new HashSet<Card>();
@Persistent
private Set<String> _Tags = new HashSet<String>();
@Persistent
private User _Owner;
}
And finally, each card:
@PersistenceCapable
public class Card {
@PrimaryKey
@Persistent(valueStrategy = IdGeneratorStrategy.IDENTITY)
private Key _ID;
@Persistent
private Text _Question;
@Persistent
private Text _Answer;
@Persistent
private Deck _Parent;
}
I am trying to retrieve and then detach the entire object graph. I can see in the debugger that it loads fine, but then when I get to detaching, I can't make anything beyond the User object load. (No Decks, no Cards). At first I tried without a transaction to simply "touch" all the fields on the attached object before detaching, but that didn't help. Then I tried adding everything to the default fetch group, but that just generated warnings about GAE not supporting joins. I tried setting the fetch plan's max fetch depth to -1, but that didn't do it. Finally, I tried using FetchGroups as you can see above, and then retrieving with the following code:
PersistenceManager pm = _pmf.getPersistenceManager();
pm.setDetachAllOnCommit(true);
pm.getFetchPlan().setGroup("decks");
pm.getFetchPlan().setGroup("cards");
Transaction tx = pm.currentTransaction();
Query query = null;
try {
tx.begin();
query = pm.newQuery(GoogleAccountsUser.class); //Subclass of User
query.setFilter("_UniqueIdentifier == TheUser");
query.declareParameters("String TheUser");
List<User> results = (List<User>)query.execute(ID); //ID = Supplied
parameter
//TODO: Test for more than one result and throw
if(results.size() == 0)
{
tx.commit();
return null;
}
else
{
User usr = (User)results.get(0);
//usr = pm.detachCopy(usr);
tx.commit();
return usr;
}
} finally {
query.closeAll();
if (tx.isActive())
{
tx.rollback();
}
pm.close();
}
This also doesn't work, and I'm running out of ideas...
