Refreshing TopLink cache problem

Question

Hello,
Assume I configure TopLink to cache Class1 and Class2 objects. Class1 is related with Class2 with one-to-one relationship, and Class2 is related with Class1 with one-to-many relationship, Class2 is parent of Class1. When I invalidate instance of Class1 and its parent instance of Class2 with
session.getIdentityMapAccessor().invalidateObject(object);
session.getIdentityMapAccessor().invalidateObject(object.getParent());
and read Class1 by Id with ReadObjectQuery, object of Class1 is refreshed from database, however, if I try to access its parent with Class1#getParent(), that parent is stale, it is not automatically refreshed from database. When I read it (invalidated parent object) with ReadObjectQuery by ID, it is refreshed from database.
Is there any way to force TopLink to refresh objects that have been invalidated automatically without querying them by ID? If object A of type Class1 has been invalidated, object B of type Class2 has been invalidated, object A references its parent B and I query A by ID, I would like TopLink to refresh not only A, but B object too.

Answer 1

If the parent is invalidated, then when you access the refreshed Class1's parent the parent should be refreshed. Are you sure you are invalidating both the Class1 and its parent before reading Class1?
Otherwise I am not sure why you are seeing it not being refreshed.
Perhaps try this on another object to see if it is something specific to how you have mapped the object.
Otherwise enable FINEST logging and include the TopLink log.
