Hibernate NonUniqueObjectException when creating several obj

[binario]

Hi all,

I process files in the following order:

1) Struts Action which contains a method that logicall does the following:

 MyObject m = new MyObject();
 for(int 1 = 0; i< someVar: i++){
 mySLSB.persistSomeEJB3Object(m);
 }

where mySLSB is an ejb3 stateless session bean and MyObject is an ejb3 entity bean.

Unfotunately when the for loop iterates more than one time I get a hibernate "NonUniqueObjectException". Now I understand that this object has been created already but the id is an automatically generated primary key so I would have presumed that I could create as many of them as I liked.

Any ideas? Thanks very much.
regards,
Binario

no this is not possible since the persistence context get track of the entity *instances* to manage their state changes
