Jboss 3.2.3 upgrade problems ...changes?

[csmmoss]

We've just upgraded from 3.2.1 to 3.2.3_jetty and have encountered a number of errors in our unit tests. So, we tried dropping back to 3.2.2_jetty, but the errors persisted.

Here's an example:
Previously, when we passed in a NULL into a findByPrimaryKey method, JBoss returned a standard FinderException, which we were catching.

Now in 3.2.3 (& 3.2.2), this NULL is throwing an IllegalArgumentException, crashing out of the transaction, & triggering rollback exceptions.

In this case, it was a small matter to alter the code & trap the NULL prior to the Finder method. However, these upgrades have also introduced other errors, which aren't as easily posted to the forums.

It appears to us that some things have changed at a fundamental level and it would be very helpful if we knew the whats & the whys. We've looked through the SourceForge site, but the only docs there were "Ver to VerRCn" -type release notes, which were verbose CVS-wise, but a bit light on explanations & details.

So, can someone please point us to a forum post or refrence doc with a list of "enhancements" (between versions 3.2.1 & 3.2.2, I guess), which can shed some light on these changes.

Thanks,

Logan

Hrmm, I think I found the root of the findByPK(NULL) change, here: http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=767716&group_id=22866&atid=376685 (Bug #767716). Took all morning to track this one down.

But that's just one of many errors....

Afair, Alex rewrote the ejb-ql parser between 3.2.1 and 3.2.2.
But you are right, finders are supposed to return RemoteException or Finder Excption where IllegalArgumentException is no child of.
You might rise a bug report.
