save the transient instance before flushing
- by eugenn
Exception: object references an unsaved transient instance - save the transient instance before flushing: Child
How to reproduce issue:
1. Hibernate is load the entity "Parent". The property "child" is null
2. The "Parent" is rendered on the screen and after that the "child" property is auto instantiated. So I have the following graph:
Parent.child != null
Parent.child.childId = null
Parent.child.childKey = ""
Parent.child.childName = ""
Question: How I could to force the Hibernate to ignore updating or inserting Child entity WHEN childId = null?
If childId != null I would like just create relation.
