I am developing an application using Spring MVC 3 and Hibernate. I have 2 classes User and TenancyDetails with parent-child relationship. In the edit details functionality, we can edit the details of class User and dynamically add classTenancyDetails items and save the changes. I am using hibernate saveorupdate() method for this and hibernate is creating a new record for class User when it should be updating the existing record. Here is my code.
Model classes:
@Entity
@Table(name="tenancydetails")
public class TenancyDetails {
@Column(name="tenancyID")
@Id
@GeneratedValue
private int tenancyId;
@Column(name="landlordName")
@NotNull
private String landlordName;
@Column(name="landLordEmail")
@NotNull
private String landlordEmail;
@Column(name="fromDate")
@NotNull
private Date fromDate;
@Column(name="toDate")
@NotNull
private Date toDate;
@Column(name="location")
@NotNull
private String location;
@ManyToOne(cascade=CascadeType.ALL)
@JoinColumn(name="userId", nullable=false)
private User user;
@Transient
protected Object[] jdoDetachedState;
public User getUser() {
return user;
}
public void setUser(User user) {
this.user = user;
}
public int getTenancyId() {
return tenancyId;
}
public void setTenancyId(int tenancyId) {
this.tenancyId = tenancyId;
}
public String getLandlordName() {
return landlordName;
}
public void setLandlordName(String landlordName) {
this.landlordName = landlordName;
}
public String getLandlordEmail() {
return landlordEmail;
}
public void setLandlordEmail(String landlordEmail) {
this.landlordEmail = landlordEmail;
}
public Date getFromDate() {
return fromDate;
}
public void setFromDate(Date fromDate) {
this.fromDate = fromDate;
}
public Date getToDate() {
return toDate;
}
public void setToDate(Date toDate) {
this.toDate = toDate;
}
public String getLocation() {
return location;
}
public void setLocation(String location) {
this.location = location;
}
}
@Entity
@Table(name="User")
public class User {
@Column(name="userId")
@Id
private int userId;
@Column(name="name")
private String name;
@Column(name="emailId")
@NotEmpty(message = "Please enter your email id")
@Size(max = 50, message = "Email id can only be upto 50 characters long")
private String emailId;
@Column(name="password")
@NotEmpty(message = "Please enter your password")
@Size(max = 20, message = "Password can only be upto 20 characters long")
private String password;
@OneToMany(cascade={CascadeType.ALL}, fetch = FetchType.EAGER)
@Cascade({org.hibernate.annotations.CascadeType.DELETE_ORPHAN,
org.hibernate.annotations.CascadeType.PERSIST,
org.hibernate.annotations.CascadeType.SAVE_UPDATE})
@JoinColumn(name="userId"/*, nullable=true*/)
@LazyCollection(LazyCollectionOption.FALSE)
private List<TenancyDetails> tenancyDetails = null;
public User(){
tenancyDetails = new AutoPopulatingList<TenancyDetails>(TenancyDetails.class);
}
public List<TenancyDetails> getTenancyDetails() {
return tenancyDetails;
}
public void addTenancyDetail(TenancyDetails tenancyDetail) {
if (!tenancyDetails.contains(tenancyDetail)) {
tenancyDetails.add(tenancyDetail);
}
}
public void setTenancyDetails(List<TenancyDetails> tenancyDetails) {
this.tenancyDetails = tenancyDetails;
}
public int getUserId() {
return userId;
}
public void setUserId(int userId) {
this.userId = userId;
}
public String getName() {
return name;
}
public void setName(String name) {
this.name = name;
}
public String getEmailId() {
return emailId;
}
public void setEmailId(String emailId) {
this.emailId = emailId;
}
public String getPassword() {
return password;
}
public void setPassword(String password) {
this.password = password;
}
}
Controller:
@RequestMapping(value = "/Profile/{userId}", method = RequestMethod.POST)
public ModelAndView saveProfileDetails(@PathVariable int userId, Model model, HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response,
HttpSession session, ModelMap modelMap, @ModelAttribute("user") User user) {
System.out.println("am in save");
model.addAttribute("user", user);
System.out.println(user.getPassword());
System.out.println(user.getTenancyDetails().get(0).getUser().getUserId());
System.out.println(model.containsAttribute("user"));
tenantRatingService.saveProfileDetails(user);
return new ModelAndView("editProfile","user", user);
}
DAO method:
public void saveProfileDetails(User user){
System.out.println("inside the save profile method");
Session session = getSession();
Transaction transaction = session.beginTransaction();
System.out.println("before save: " + user.getPassword());
System.out.println("before save: " + user.getTenancyDetails().get(0).getUser().getUserId());
session.saveOrUpdate(user);
transaction.commit();
session.flush();
System.out.println(user.getPassword());
}
I have also set the id fields of both classes as AUTO_INCREMENT fields in mysql. Is there a problem with the one to many mapping or the @GeneratedValue I have used? Or is it to do with the saveorupdate() method? Should I use merge() in this case? Just before the saveorupdate() statement, the value of the existing userId is printed out correctly!
Can someone please let me know where I am going wrong? Thanks in advance.
I don't know, how you are putting user
object in your Model
while rendering the form, which eventually comes to your POST method of "/Profile/{userId}"
. The id
of your user
object becoming 0
. That's why saveOrUpdate
method saves your user
again. To verify it, you can add the line below, before going into saveProfileDetails
method:
user.setUserId(userId);
And your problem will be fixed.
You can also fix this problem by putting @SessionAttributes("user")
, before the owning controller of your "/Profile/{userId}"
's GET
and POST
method.
