I'm trying to partial update few properties of entity.
I hafe defined dynamic-update="true" for entity and implemented findDirty function of interceptor, wich returns only updateted properties indexes.

The problem is that when nullability is cheked, it's checked for ALL properties, and not only for dirty properties. Isn't it bug in DefaultFlushEntityEventListener ?
How do i overcone this problem ?



Hibernate version:3.2

Mapping documents:


<hibernate-mapping>
<class name="com.unilims.academic.pojo.Clients" table="clients" catalog="academic" dynamic-update="true">
<id name="clientId" type="integer">
<column name="ClientID" />
<generator class="identity" />
</id>
.......
<property name="clientNameLat" type="string">
<column name="ClientNameLat" length="50" />
</property>
<property name="clientIsCanceled" type="boolean" >
<column name="ClientIsCanceled" not-null="true" />
</property>
.....
</class>
Code between sessionFactory.openSession() and session.close():
Clients client = new Clients();
client.setClientId(new Integer(3556));
client.setClientNameLat("Name7");
clientsManager.saveOrUpdate(client);
