CMP 2.0 Do Finders Load entire bean or just a collection of primary keys?
I've got an EJB module based on CMP 2.0 and we are experiencing some performance problems. I believe that our problem is in the custom finder. Our finder returns a collection of CMP entities. Does this collection only contain primary keys? If so can I force it to load the entire bean(all of the fields)? If not am I correct in the assumption that for each field I call a get on in the entity that the container actiually submits a sql statement to the database?
Is there something in one of the deployment descriptors I can configure to load the entire bean? In BEA they have a "finders-load-bean" attribute that loads the entire bean. Anything similar in OC4J or Orion? Any other workarounds?
Thanks.
I can see your point. But in this case I'm using a custom finder and I do want to get ~90% of the fields from the table. What I've done as a slight hack to get around the majority of the pain is to create a custom method within the Entity Bean itself that retrieves all fields from the bean and returns them as a custom object but I see this as a hack rather than a full solution. I'm sure this violates the EJB design patterns somehow but I'm prepared to bend the spec in order to get response rate down from ~15 secs/additonal field retrieved compared to ~30 secs for all fields retrieved. Do you have a better solution to my performance dilemma?

Creation of CMP bean for a Composite Primary key????
Hi
i am having a composite primary keys in one of my table in the database.
I am trying to create a new entity bean for this table but i don't know how to create one in case when there is a composite primary key for a table.
Can anybody let me know is it possible to do it.
what is the procedure to be followed for the creation of the Entity bean in case of a composite primary key.
I am using MySql as the database .Creating CMP type of Entity bean.
Any help in this regard will be greatly useful to me as this is very urgent.
Thanks & Regards
Vikram KHi Nikola,
There are several problems with your CMP bean.
1. Fields of a Primary Key Class must be a subset of CMP fields, so yes, they must be either a primitive or a Serializable type.
2. Sun Application Server does not support Primary Key fields of an arbitrary Serializable type (i.e. those that will be stored
as BLOB in the database), but only primitives, Java wrappers, String, and Date/Time types.
Do you try to use stubs instead of relationships or for some other reason?
If it's the former - look at the CMR fields.
If it's the latter, I suggest to store these fields as regular CMP fields and use some other value as the PK. If you prefer that
the CMP container generates the PK values, use the Unknown
PrimaryKey feature.

Entity bean with another class as primary key generator class
Hi All,
I have a CMP entity bean in which I generate the primary key using my own class know as unique id generator.
I use it in ejbCreate method in the following manner
public Long ejbCreate(HospitalData hospitalData) throws CreateException{
Long myid = new Long(UniqueIdGenerator.getId());
System.out.println("My id generated ====== "+myid);
this.hospitalid = myid;
System.out.println("My id generated ====== "+this.hospitalid);
System.out.println("Came in ejbCreate method of HospitalEJB");
this.hospitalname = hospitalData.getHospitalname();
return null;
Can you tell me how I map this primary key in my ejb-jar.xml and jbosscmp-jdbc.xml.
Anyhelp would be appreciated.
Thanks

I am trying to develop an entity bean attached to a key which have a

at com.netscape.server.ejb.SQLPersistenceManager.find(Unknown Source)I'm also willing to bet that you may have created your own primary key class
with a single field, rather than using the fields type as a primitive
primary key class. If you do this, then SQLPersistenceManager will break.
It is badly written, and has some stupid assumptions. The one I remember
the most is that if you only have one primary key field, then
SQLPersistenceManager assumes you have used a primitive type such as
java.lang.String or java.lang.Integer, to represent it, rather than creating
your own <Enity>Pk.java file.
SQLPersistenceManager works for toy examples, but in general I would say it
is broken and unusable. Either use BMP, or splash out the money for Coco
Base from Thought Inc. Currently the only CMP plugin for iPlanet App server,
other than the reference implementation, that I know of. -
JBoss, win2000. Sun One Studio free version.
I am having difficulty understanding the primary key.
I am reading Mastering Enterprise Java Beans but unfortunately there are mistakes in this book with respect to its usage of primary key and they are as yet unfixed.
If I use my own primary key class, where MUST I use it, and where can I optionally use it? It seems as if my ejbCreate() method must return a primary key class instance.
Now the primary key is actually a long wrapped by my class. So do my get/set methods get/set the primary key class, or the long?
getID();
setID(long id);
or
PrimaryKey getID();
setID(PrimaryKey id);
I am a little confused about this primary key class usage. I am also trying to use XDoclet...
I appreciate all helpyou only need to make your own primary key class when
you want to use a compound primary key. If you are
just using an Integer (id) or a simple String you can
just use that as primary key by defining it as such in
the ejb-jar.xml like this
<primkey-field>id</primkey-field> (remember to set
prim-key-class to right datatype)
You don�t have to return an instance of the primary
key, ejbCreate only needs to have the same datatype as
return value, you can (and should) return null.I believe I have learned that CMP returns null from ejbCreate, but BMP returns the actual value. Of course this post was about CMP... -
Error While Deploying A CMP Entity Bean With A Composite Primary Key
Hello all,
I have a problem deploying CMP Entity beans with composite primary keys. I have a CMP Entity Bean, which contains a composite primary key composed of two local stubs. If you know more about this please respond to my post on the EJB forum (subject: CMP Bean Local Stub as a Field of a Primary Key Class).
In the mean time, can you please tell me what following error message means and how to resolve it? From what I understand it might be a problem with Sun ONE AS 7, but I would like to make sure it's not me doing something wrong.

Composite Primary Key in M:N CMP Entity Bean Relationship
Dear Sir/Madam,
We are creating an Enterprise Application for our institute using EJB 2.0 specifiactions. In the course of developement, we are facing a problem in writing the CMP Entity Beans with EJB Relationships.
We are having many to many relationship between two beans such that the primary key of one Entity Bean (let's call it A), serves as the foreign key of another Entity Bean (let's call it B). Further, this primary key of A as foreign key in B, participates in the composite key of B.
The EJB Specifications require that the primary key field(s) of any bean (B, in our case) declared in the Primary Key class should be the subset of the 'cmp-field' declared in the deployment descriptor for that bean. As I said earlier, we have many to many relationship at play. Hence, we require to keep the foerign key in the 'cmr-field' in lieu of 'cmp-field'. In short, the component of primary key is in 'cmr-field' while, it is needed in both 'cmp-field' and 'cmr-field'. That's perfect from Database point of view but illogical from CMP Entity Bean's view.
How can we write the deployment descriptor for such a CMP (BMP is working fine for above scenario) Entity Bean? Also, how can we write the Primary Key class? The problem is not just to find the solution, but find under the hood of EJB 2.0 specifications.
Please help.I think you should realise that it would not be convenient to use CMP for everything. It is difficult to define complex relations using CMP. Mostly BMP os preferd since it gives the flexibility for the bean developer.

CMP entity bean with compound primary key
I'm trying to use a compound primary key in a CMP entity bean. I've created the custom primary key class okay, and I have the prim-key-class set in ejb-jar.xml. My client app gets the home reference okay, but when it tries to find an entity, I get the exception "SQLException: Incorrect syntax near '/'."
I think I'm having trouble deploying this in OC4J. Is there a sample orion-ejb-jar.xml deployment for a custom, compound primary key somewhere?
Many thanks for any help.
ErnieNever mind. I solved my problem. Thanks.

Dotunyou will have to create a sequence and a trigger
CREATE SEQUENCE <SEQUENCE NAME>
INCREMENT BY 1
START WITH 1
NOCACHE
/this sequence will guarantee that each requested number is unique
the trigger will select from this sequence and insert the obtained value in the new record
CREATE OR REPLACE TRIGGER <TRIGGER NAME>
BEFORE INSERT ON <TABLE NAME>
REFERENCING NEW AS NEW OLD AS OLD
FOR EACH ROW
BEGIN
select
<SEQUENCE NAME>.nextval

this will always take the value from the sequence, even if you already provided a value yourself
(otherwise you will first have to test if :NEW.<column name> is null, but I wouldn't do this for a key column.
if you need the generated key back for further processing (inserting it into a child table for example), you can use the returning clause on the insert statement
see the oracle documentation for more information about sequences, triggers and the returning clause

Comp. Primary key class-field mapping to DB columns problem.(EJB 2.0 CMP)
Hi!
I have deal with EJB 2.0 CMP bean.
I have a composite PK so use the java class to store it. And there is a corresponding field in the Entity Bean with its primary key class type.
The problem is: when deployment tool creates sql query for the findByPrimaryKey(PKClass ck)
where ck is an object with 3 fielde : a_id, b_id, c_id.
it says:
<sql>SELECT "ck" FROM "MyTable" WHERE "ck" = ? </sql>
And it means by the "ck" simple a column in DB but NOT the composite key which has to be splited into 3 different fields. So the container can't do the proper mapping.
Does anyone know solutions?I was wrong about primary key class fields, take a look at Ejb2.0 Specification (10.8.2):
The primary key class must be public, and must have a public constructor with no parameters.
All fields in the primary key class must be declared as public.
The names of the fields in the primary key class must be a subset of the names of the container-managed
fields. (This allows the container to extract the primary key fields from an instance�s container-managed
fields, and vice versa.)
Right now I'm using BMP and I don't have this problems. Primary keys, calculated fields and types not supported by the DB can be easily achieved. But I understand your interest on CMP, is clearly evolving! -
Composite Primary Key using cmp
How can an Entity Bean with Composite Primary Key using Container Managed Persistance (CMP) be Deployed using in WebLogic Server 8.1
pls help meYour text is a bit confusing, but I think the answer is yes (it can be used). However, it would help to see the DDL that you are using (or that you propose to use) to avoid any misunderstandings. And please be specific about whether you are referring
to COLUMNS that are part of a primary key versus the primary key itself (whether it is composed of one column or multiple columns).
Lastly, why not just try it and see. -

Deploying BMP Entity Bean with primary key calss
Hi,
I am using EJB 2.0 with and websphere studio 5.0 and database is sql server 2000.
My BMP Entity bean has a primary key class.From my client I am invoking the Entity Bean by calling it's findbyprimarykey method.
The home interface of my findbyprimarykey method returns a class of type Remote.But in the Entity Bean class,the return type is the primarykey class type.
My problem is invoking this findbyprimarykey from the client to get the remote interface so that the other business methods of the entity bean can be called.
The control goes into the ejbFindbyPrimaryKey but when it is returing from the Entity Bean class,it gives a remote exception (as the return type in Entity Bean class and Home interface are different for the findbyprimarykey method).
I think that somewhere in the deployment decriptor in my websphere,i have to specify the primarykey class type,which i am missing out and hence getting the error.
Please help me out with your advice and solution.
Thanks

CMP with Auto-increment Primary Key problem
I'm trying to set a column as IDENTITY in PointBase and have the app server utilize this in the CMP beans. I followed the instructions from the tutorial:
- In the deployment descriptor, the primary key class is defined as a java.lang.Object. The primary key field is not specified.
- In the home interface, the argument of the findByPrimaryKey method must be java.lang.Object.
- In the entity bean class, the return type of the ejbCreate method must be a java.lang.Object.
Below is (a fragment of) my deployment descriptor:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

In the admin-serv/logs directory I get the follow message (bad place for the logs, took me a while to find where it was putting it!):
[24/Sep/2002:16:33:57] WARNING ( 4165): Validation error in bean DocumentType: Warning: All primary key columns in primary table DOCUMENT_TYPE of the bean corresponding to the generated class com.sun.itstar.j2ee.projectdocmgt.ejb.DocumentTypeBean_387898907_JDOState must be mapped to key fields.
Map the following primary key columns to key fields: DOCUMENT_TYPE.ID. If you already have fields mapped to these columns, verify that they are key fields.Great! This worked. Here are some clear steps:
1. delete the field from the CMP
2. delete any business methods that you might have for the field
3. go to the properties of the bean, find the primary key property. Set the property to Unkown Primey Key Class (java.lang.Object)
Now there is a bigger problem. CMR fields. In ejbPostCreate() the bean gets its own pk and looks up other related beans. Now that I have removed the accessor to the pk field (and the pk field from the bean), how do I lookup the relationships?
I need some method that I can call from within ejbPostCreate() that will return the primary key...
I tried adding the field back in but not as the primary key. That generated an exception that said you cannot do that. If the field is the pk it must be marked as the pk.
Any ideas? -
CMP with auto-increment primary key.Please help
Hi all,
I new with EJB technology so please bear with me.
Env: 2k Server, SQL 2k Server
Sun One(Forte EE) to develop and deploy CMP
I got the servlet to load the data from CMP's business mehods
is fine. Calling the findPrimaryKey is OK too. Even when I try to insert the row into DB is OK. At this time I make key PK is int AND NOT
AUTO INCREMENT everything is OK. In the ejbCreate method
I called setPK, setName ...It's fine.
The problem comes when I try to make the PK(still int) to be auto-increment field.In ejbCreate not call setPK because of in SunOne IDE, under the J2EE RI tab of EJB Module property, the Auto generate SQL I set to false so that I can
modify the SQL statement under SQL Deployment.createRow not taking the PK. I thought that will do it but it doesnot like it at all (I got Exception with transaction rollback)I just want to insert a single row with ID and name that's all.
Then I changed the SQL statment take PK and changed the Auto Generate SQL to True and in ejbCreate the PK as one of the args and called setPK this time with null object. It doesn't like neither.(Exception Cannot set the primary key with null. That is reasonable.)
I thought using EJB fast and clean technique would help developer to develop application with easiness.
So I realy stuck with this, I wonder ejb 2.0 support for auto increment at all because I would like to take advantage of the auto increment feature of the DB without writing the PrimaryKeySequence generator at all.
Am I missing something with this? May be just config thing to tell
that my PK is auto-increment field so that when the ejbCreate called it knows not taking the PK or even not asking to call setPK in ejbCreate.
Any help would appreciated.Check out this thread, there's a bunch of good info:
