Hello,

This message was cross-posted in the cluster forum to inform the authors of an affected subsystem.

When we have an entity with an cache-invalidation set
to true. The problem is that it is being invalidated in every transaction. Clearly not what we want. The bean is not configured to be read-only.

Debugging through the container, I found the following:

EntityBeanCacheBatchInvalidatorInterceptor has a changed() method that calls the container.getPersistenceManager().isModified(). In turn, the CMPPersistenceManager's isModified calls JDBCStoreManager-->isModifiedCommand.execute(ctx) which is hardcoded
to return true.

However, when the container itself does not use the isModified when it saves and enity. It uses a dirty list to determine whether the bean needs to be persisted.
Look at JDBCStoreEntityCommand which uses the dirty list.

I have changed a local copy of the JDBCIsModifiedCommand to use the code in JDBCStoreEntityCommand and it works like a charm.

How do we get fix into the system ?
