InstrumentTask not working in JBoss 6.1 with Hibernate 3.6.6

§upernova§oftware · **Posted:** Thu Jan 19, 2012 11:10 pm

Some time ago I set up some lazy initialized @ManyToOne relationships. At that time I was using the

Code:

org.hibernate.tool.instrument.cglib.InstrumentTask

I was on JBoss 4.2.3 and this worked fine.
I switched to

Code:

org.hibernate.tool.instrument.javassist.InstrumentTask

when I upgraded to JBoss 6.1.0 final.

Per HHH-5451 support for cglib as a bytecode provider has been deprecated.

After noticing some performance problems, I found that this is not longer working. Below is my ant task for the instrumentation.

Code:

   <target name="instrument" depends="compile">
     <taskdef name="instrument" classname="org.hibernate.tool.instrument.javassist.InstrumentTask" >
       <classpath refid="build.classpath"/>
    </taskdef>
    <instrument verbose="true">
      <fileset dir="${jar.dir}/com/model">
        <include name="**/*.class" />
      </fileset>
    </instrument>
   </target>

The class files generated are larger when I instrument and if I display the contents of the .class file I can see that the javassist hooks have been added. I also verified that the classes inside the jar deployed inside my ear have been instrumented.

However, when running the application everything is eagerly loaded.

This is how I annotated my classes.

Code:

    private State state; 
    @ManyToOne(fetch=FetchType.LAZY, optional=false)
    public State getState() { return this.state; }
    public void setState(State state) { this.state = state; }

I only recently addeed optional=false, but this made no difference.

I am not sure when this stopped working, but I figure it was when I upgraded JBoss and Hibernate several months ago. My application is now at a crawl.

I found this JIRA
https://hibernate.onjira.com/browse/HHH-1435
,but it show fixed many versions ago.

I would greatly appreciate any advice on how to debug this or hopefully an easy solution.

I also tried the following with no difference.

Code:

    private State state; 
    @ManyToOne(fetch=FetchType.LAZY, optional=false)
    @LazyToOne(LazyToOneOption.PROXY)
    @Fetch(FetchMode.SELECT)
    public State getState() { return this.state; }
    public void setState(State state) { this.state = state; }

This is the base class is annotated as follows:

Code:

@Entity
@Table(name = "t_generic_item", schema="inventory")
@Inheritance(strategy=InheritanceType.JOINED )
public class GenericItem implements Serializable
