Hi, I’m trying to use JPA second level cache on JBoss AS 7.1.3.Final and trying to:

• Use @Cacheable annotation for selective entity caching.
• Use orm.xml only for named queries.
• Use JPA backed by Hibernate
• Use Infinispan as the second level cache provider

When second level cache and selective caching is enabled through persistence.xml, @Cacheable annotation is ignored and the entities won’t get cached in L2 cache.

Here is a part of my persistence.xml

<mapping-file>META-INF/orm.xml</mapping-file>
<shared-cache-mode>ENABLE_SELECTIVE</shared-cache-mode>
 ...
<property name="hibernate.cache.use_second_level_cache" value="true" />
<property name="hibernate.cache.use_query_cache" value="true" />
<property name="hibernate.cache.use_minimal_puts" value="true" />

I also found :

• This doesn’t happen on 7.1.1.Final or 7.1.2.Final
• This happens with 7.2 (nightly build on Jan 20, 2013)
• If I give up using @Cacheable annotation and add entity elements with cacheable=”true” in orm.xml, L2 cache works, but I want to use @Cacheable annotation along with orm.xml.
• Using DISABLE_SELECTIVE in persistence.xml, @Cacheable(false) is ignored and all entities are cached.

Is this a bug?

Any idea?

Thanks.
