    illegal access to loading collection

    graflaszlo

      Hi

      Reading the Hibernate ref. I decided to try a small example, the weblog.
      I am using JBOSS-4.0.4.GA, EJB3 and hibernate-3.2.

      These are the Java sources:
      - the Blogs.java (ENTITY)

      package weblog;
      
      import java.util.HashSet;
      import java.util.Set;
      import javax.persistence.CascadeType;
      import javax.persistence.Column;
      import javax.persistence.Entity;
      import javax.persistence.FetchType;
      import javax.persistence.Id;
      import javax.persistence.OneToMany;
      import javax.persistence.Table;
      import javax.persistence.UniqueConstraint;
      
      @Entity
      @Table(name = "weblog.blogs", uniqueConstraints = { @UniqueConstraint(columnNames = { "name" }) })
      public class Blogs implements java.io.Serializable {
      
       private static final long serialVersionUID = 255571063365822285L;
       private int blogId;
       private String name;
       private Set<BlogItems> blogItemses = new HashSet<BlogItems>(0);
      
       public Blogs() {}
      
       public Blogs(int blogId) {
       this.blogId = blogId;
       }
      
       public Blogs(int blogId, String name) {
       this.blogId = blogId;
       this.name = name;
       }
      
       public Blogs(int blogId, String name, Set<BlogItems> blogItemses) {
       this.blogId = blogId;
       this.name = name;
       this.blogItemses = blogItemses;
       }
      
       @Id
       @Column(name = "blog_id", unique = true, nullable = false, insertable = true, updatable = true)
       public int getBlogId() { return this.blogId; }
       public void setBlogId(int blogId) { this.blogId = blogId; }
      
       @Column(name = "name", unique = true, nullable = false, insertable = true, updatable = true, length = 50)
       public String getName() { return this.name; }
       public void setName(String name) { this.name = name; }
      
       @OneToMany(cascade = { CascadeType.ALL }, fetch = FetchType.LAZY, mappedBy = "blogs")
       public Set<BlogItems> getBlogItemses() { return this.blogItemses; }
       public void setBlogItemses(Set<BlogItems> blogItemses) { this.blogItemses = blogItemses; }
      
       @Override
       public int hashCode() {
       final int PRIME = 31;
       int result = 1;
       result = PRIME * result + blogId;
       result = PRIME * result + ((blogItemses == null) ? 0 : blogItemses.hashCode());
       result = PRIME * result + ((name == null) ? 0 : name.hashCode());
       return result;
       }
      
       @Override
       public boolean equals(Object obj) {
       if (this == obj)
       return true;
       if (obj == null)
       return false;
       if (getClass() != obj.getClass())
       return false;
       final Blogs other = (Blogs) obj;
       if (blogId != other.blogId)
       return false;
       if (blogItemses == null) {
       if (other.blogItemses != null)
       return false;
       } else if (!blogItemses.equals(other.blogItemses))
       return false;
       if (name == null) {
       if (other.name != null)
       return false;
       } else if (!name.equals(other.name))
       return false;
       return true;

      When I want to create a new BlogItems object, by adding it to the list of BlogItems, wich belongs to Blogs entity, I get the

      error message.

          Hi,
          I have exactly the same problem. (bidirectional relationship, lazy-loading, ejb3...). Sorry I don't have a solution but perhaps some more informations.

          If think the exception is thrown by the hascode methode (that is my case). When trying to do blogs.hashCode(); Hibernate will try to fetch the blogs in order to compute their hascode. I think beacause of the lazy loading, this is not going to work...

          Do you have any solution since the date you posted your question? If yes, please share your experience...
          Thanks
