JPA and logging entity changes

Good day!
I need to log all entity property changes in scope of current transaction in j2ee application. I use Glassfish and JPA. Is there any way to do this?

Hi all,
I have a "simple" question:
Should I create a class to manage entity manager and entity manager factory on JPA2?That question is far from complete, as the answer to this one is "depends on what you want to do!"
Why do I ask that? Because I read on J2EE tutorial:
With a container-managed entity manager, an EntityManager instance’s persistence context is automatically propagated by the container to all application components that use the EntityManager instance within a single Java Transaction Architecture (JTA) transaction.
To obtain an EntityManager instance, inject the entity manager into the application component:
@PersistenceContext
EntityManager em;
Given this information...
I'm using JSF2, JPA2, JTA and Glassfish3.1 on the NetBeans 7.0.1.That answer to your question is "NO", because you have a container available to you that can do the work (Glassfish). It makes no sense using Glassfish and then purposely ignoring the features it has to offer.
Lets get back to basics: you are doing something wrong here. You have to figure out what, you can only do that if you keep studying and getting a more complete understanding. If you are having trouble realizing that, perhaps you should start over without the help of any wizard at all; wizards are only useful when you are already experienced, right now the fact that code is generated is hindering you a lot because you will have a strong impulse to believe there can be no mistake; unfortunately there is no such safety net. The fact that you used the word "weird" is enough proof of this by the way. There is nothing weird here, just a mistake being made that has to be corrected.
And for the future: what IDE (Netbeans in your case) you use to develop really makes absolutely no difference at all. What is more interesting is which version of Java your are using, which can likely be Java 6 or Java 7 nowadays.

You can not merge accounts.
Apps are tied to the Apple ID used to download them, you can not transfer them.

I used to share one apple ID/account with my ex but made a new one for myself recently and logged out of the old one but when I try to update my iBooks it asks for the old account's password(which my ex changed by now)

I used to share one apple ID/account with my ex but made a new one for myself recently and logged out of the old one but when I try to update my iBooks (only happens with this app)it asks for the other account's password(which my ex changed by now). I don't understand why this happens when I'm logged into my account and it only happens with that app. Please help, I need to update. :/

Content (apps, music, ibooks, films etc) is tied to the account that originally downloaded it, so if the iBooks app was downloaded using the account that you used to share with your ex then only that account can download updates to it. As it's a free app you could delete it and re-download it under your own account - and then re-download your ibooks into it (or copy the books to your computer's iTunes first via File > Transfer Purchases and then sync them back to the app).

Logging the changes of a custom table into CDHDR and CDPOS

Hi all,
What is the strucutre that is to be passed while creation of a ChangeDocument(Object Class) for the parameter
Name of Ref. tab in SCDO tcode.And what other steps are to be done for logging the changes of a custom table.

How do you maintain the first table? Did you create the maintenance module yourself or did you get it generated by SAP? If you have your own maintenace module, all you have to do is get the values from the table at the time when you update it and seve the necessary values in the second table. If you have a generated maintenance module, then you would have to do this in there, problem is you will need to register the onject when you change it.
Let me know if this helps.

HT5622 valid apple id but not icloud account. I tried downloading on a different computer and logging in and it did not work. I have restarted my computer several times. I have changed my password several times. I have tried to access the icloud page.

repeating error message reads: "valid apple id but not icloud account." when trying to start my icloud account. I tried downloading on a different computer and logging in and it did not work. I have restarted my computer several times. I have changed my password several times. I have tried to access the icloud page. Nothing has worked. Now I have this stupid app and some of my music is still not being shared on both of my computers.

I have the same problem signing in...but, I finally got a screen saying you have to set up a account on a device..like an ipad to get a iCloud sign in ...my apple id is [email protected] and this screen reset to [email protected]
If you don't have an apple device you may be out of luck. I don't know. I'm still waiting for help just as you are...good luck to both of us though.

Change in Oracle Parameters and Log file size

Hello All,
We have scheduled DB Check job and the log file showed few errors and warnings in the oracle parameter that needs to be corrected. We have also gone through the SAP Note #830576 Oracle Parameter Configuration to change these parameters accordingly. However we need few clarifications on the same.
1.Can we change these parameters directly in init<SID>.ora file or only in SP file. If yes can we edit the same and change it or do we need to change it using BR tools.
2.We have tried to change few parameters using DB26 tcode. But it prompts for maintaining the connection variables in DBCO tcode. We try to make change only in default database but it prompts for connection variables.
Also we get check point error. As per note 309526 can we create the new log file with 100MB size and drop the existing one. Or are there any other considerations that we need to follow for the size of log file and creating new log file. Kindly advise on this. Our Environment is as follows.
OS: Windows 2003 Server
DB: Oracle 10g
regards,
Madhu

Hi,
Madhu, We can change oracle parameters at both the levels that is init<SID> as well as SPFILE level.
1. If you do the changes at init<SID> level then you have to generate the SPFILE again and then database has to be restarted for the parameters to take effect.
If you make the changes in SPFILE then the parameters will take effect depending on the parameter type whether it is dynamic or static. You also need to generate the PFILE i.e init<SID>.ora
2. If possible do not change the oracle parameters using the tcode. I would say it would be better if you do it via the database and it would be much easier.
3. Well its always good to have a larger redo log size. But only one thing to keep in mind is that once you change the size of the redolog the size of the archive log also changes although the number of files will decrease.
Apart from that there wont be any issues.

Suhas

Change the Data and Log file locations in livecache

Hi
We have installed livecache in unix systems in the /sapdb mount directory where the installer have created sapdata and sapdblog directories. But the unix team has already created two mount direcotries as follows:
/sapdb/LC1/lvcdata and /sapdb/LC1/lvclog mount points.
While installing livecache we had selected this locations for creating the DATA and LOG volumes. Now they are asking to move the DATA and LOG volumes created in sapdata and saplog directories to these mount points. How to move the data and log file and make the database consistent. Is there any procedure to move the files to the mount point directories and change the pointers of livecahce to these locations.
regards
bala

Hi Lars
Thanks for the link. I will try it and let u know.
But this is livecache (even it uses MaxDB ) database which was created by
sapinst and morover is there any thing to be adjusted in SCM and as well as
any modification ot be done in db level.

Bapi_material_savedata and material master change log

Hi,
The BAPI_MATERIAL_SAVEDATA is called to extend a part number to a storage location and change MRP4 Re-order point qty and Replenishment qty.
The material master (MM03) correctly shows that the part number was extended successfully and the Re-order point qty and Replenishment qty are reflected correctly in MRP4.
However, when I view the Change Documents (menu-Environment-Display Changes), only the extension to storage location is listed. There is no record for the quantities.
Is this as expected? Is there something that can be done to enable recording of the quantities as well?
Because it's a new part number in the storage location, I expect to see the usual as below, but there's none.
old value / new value
0 / 02
0 / 10
Many thanks,
Huntr

Hi,
The solution is to call the bapi twice: once to create the mrp view and once to change the values in the view.
The first call will generate a Create event in the document log and the second call will generate a field Change event.
Thanks,
Reyleene

Is anyone else having an issue with Muse 2014.2 Freezing/Crashing at launch? It worked perfectly up until tonight and nothing has changed on my computer. I'm running windows 8.1. I've tried logging in and out of CC, I've uninstalled and reinstalled Muse twice with no change. Please advise. Thanks!

Are you getting any error when Muse crashes? what's the one function it lets you do before it freezes?

Cannot change appleid on my phone. Some other id is on there and there is no way to delete it. I have logged out and logged back in in settings, then when I go back to the store it still says the other appleid

I switched to a different iphone today. When I go in to do my updates it has another person's apple id. Even when I went into settings, log out, and log back in that apple id is still there. I cannot get it to go away and it isn't in my settings to delete.

It seems that app was downloaded with the Apple ID that keeps popping up. Delete the app and redownload it.

How to record entity changes

Hi friends,
I am trying to implement feature which should record entity property changes. Basicaly I want to keep history when and what has changed in a separate table.
For example having a table similar to this and record all changes made to entities
Entity_ID, ENTITY, old_property_value, new_property_value.
Is it an easier way to achieve this using Persistence unit, rather than adding extra logic to each setters?
To better illustrate my problem here is simple example. Assume we have a simple entity class like
@Entity
public class UserEntity implements Serializable {
    private static final long serialVersionUID = 1L;
    @Id
    @GeneratedValue(strategy = GenerationType.AUTO)
    private long id;
    private String fullName;
    public long getId() {
        return id;
    public void setId(long id) {
        this.id = id;
    public void setFullName(String fullName) {
        this.fullName = fullName;
    }Assume we call
myEntity.setFullName("New Name");And persisting changes should add record to separate table
ID ENTITY        OLD_VALUE    NEW_VALUE
1 UserEntity     Old Name    New NameI can simply add extra logic to setter or create a wrapper/controller classes but maybe there is an easier way to achieve this?
I am using glassfish application server.
Thank you for your help!

it depends how "efficient" you want the code to be. with some fairly straightforward JPA-only code, you could write a PostLoad hook method which recorded the current state of the entity in some sort of internal map (using the persistence annotations so that the code was not entity specific). then you could write a PrePersist hook method which takes the original state (as recorded by the PostLoad hook method) and compares it to the current state, and records any changes to your updates table. you could pile all of this into some common base class for all your persistent entities and you would be good to go. like a said, fairly straightforward to code, may not be super efficient at runtime.
probably the most efficient way to do this would be to use some sort of aspect oriented programming/byte code manipulation to automagically annotate all the setter methods to record updates in realtime to an internal updates map. then, a similar PrePersist hook can just use this updates map to record the updates to the appropriate table. again, you can most of this in a common base object type and then manipulate the byte code at some point to insert the setter hooks. a variation on this technique, if you didn't want to go the aspect oriented route, would be to manually insert the setter hook code into every setter method. pain in the butt to maintain, but sticks to builtin JPA functionality.

Need help understanding JPA and detached entities.

I keep getting the dreaded "Cannot Persist detached object" and I cannot understand why EclipseLink is even trying to persist the object.
The following is a general scenerio if the issue:
1. I have 3 objects "Parent", "Child", and "Agency".
2. I create a new "Agency" and persist it using em.persist(agency).
3. The "Parent" object contains a OneToMany relation to "Child" and "Child" has a reference to "Agency".
4. So I do something like:
agency = new Agency();
em.persist(agency);
child = new Child();
child.setAgency(agency);
parent = new Parent();
parent.addChild(child);
em.persist(parent);
I have Cascade.ALL on the OneToMany relation so I expect that persisting the parent will also persist the child. This part works, however for some reason the agency is trying to be saved and that's were I get the error.
Now if agency was not already persisted, everything works fine. Parent, Child, and Agency all get persisted.
Since there isn't really a way to merge() agency how do I handle this issue?
I don't really understand all the clones and how merge works, so I don't have a good grasp on how cascade works itself through the objects? I did step through the code in the debugger and it simply wants to register agency as a new object even though the primary key is set.

Hello,
I believe what you are showing and trying is just confirming what I mentioned in my previous post. The specification does not allow you to persist a detached entity and forces an exception to be thrown. When you have a detached entity referenced through a relation marked with cascade persist and then call persist on the owning object, it is the same thing as calling persist on the detached object directly - you will get an exception. If the relation is not marked cascade persist, and agency is new then you definetely will get an exception - without the provider finding out and throwing its own exception, the child object would have tried to insert a foreign key to an agency that doesn't exist.
Not marking the relation as cascade persist or using find will only work if the agency exists and was previously persisted. The problem then you mention is that you might have made changes to the detached agency or it may not already exist - the JPA provider only finds changes made to managed objects. Merge can be used when you do not know if it exists, and it will pickup changes made to the detached object.
Solutions are:
1) agency = em.merge(agency);
child.setAgency(agency);
or 2) em.merge(parent);
Solution 1 might be more efficient, since merge on new objects could require more resources than persist due to existence checking requirements.

Chris
