deleted entity passed to persist

[ellenzhao]

A list of items are displayed in a h:dataTable and there is a column which contains a h:commandButton. When the button is clicked, the item would be removed. But I constantly got this exception:

Any help would be highly appreciated!

Do you also remove the entity from the datamodel and/or list that is backing the table?

[ellenzhao]

yes, that's what I wanted to remove. I changed my code like this and it worked smoothly now:

From the controller bean, removed the code:

public void removeAnItem(Item anItem){
 entityManager.remove(anItem);
}

In the entity bean ShoppingPlan, added this method:

public void removeAnItem(Item anItem){
 this.items.remove(anItem);
}

And in the .xhtml page, call the removeAnItem(item) method from the entity bean instead of from the controller bean. Things are working, the item is removed from both the database and the web page, I'm happy.

But I'm not sure _why_ the first approach, i.e. using entityManager to remove the item always resulted in that exception....

What happens if you have:

public void removeAnItem(Item anItem){
 entityManager.remove(entityManager.merge(anItem));
}

[blackers]

I am assuming you have a @ManyToOne realationship in the Entity you are trying to delete. On the @OneToMany side you most likely have

@OneToMany(cascade = CascadeType.ALL, .....)

If you change to

@OneToMany(cascade = {CascadeType.MERGE,CascadeType.REMOVE}, ....)

It may solve your problem, at least it did for me. You will have to work out if this will affect your application before doing so.

[samdoyle]

or em.merge( yourUpdatedEntity ) explicitly
