如何使用Spring Data JPA删除子记录

Question

I am having alot of issues trying to delete child records using JPA. Consider the mappings below. I am trying to delete all the state data in the jobs table. When it is removed it will cascade all deletes down the chain. Here is the chain:

Job -> State -> TaskState -> Step

When I try to remove state from job table it is set to NULL. However it is not cascaded down the chain. How would I go about achieving this?

Here is how I am deleting the data:

@Transactional
public void runJob(Long id) throws IOException, JAXBException {

        Job job = jobRepository.findOne(id);

        if(job.getState() != null){
            State stateObj = stateRepository.findOne(job.getState().getId());
            stateObj.setTasks(null);
            stateRepository.delete(stateObj);
        }

        job.setState(null);
        jobRepository.save(job);
}

Jobs:

@Entity
@Table(name = "jobs")

    private static final long serialVersionUID = 1L;

Answer 1

It's not cascading because of stateObj.setTasks(null); .

You're breaking the link between the State and its Tasks so when you're deleting the State, the delete doesn't cascade on anything.
