Create form / update form

Hi,

I've got a form to create a user. This works correctly.
I also have a search functionality so you can search a user and then select him to update him. No problem.

The insertUserForm will be populated with all values.

But when I want to save the user, A new user is created.

What am I missing?

I don't think so... I've printed the whole hibernate_reference.pdf :)
But I'll check the unsaved-value keyword.

I don't have the doc with me right now, but do I have to write a different action (struts) to update the user?

I can't get it right..

my code:
USERACCOUNT CLASS with method to insert/update user

Code:

public UserAccount insertUserAccount(UserAccount transferUser)
{
   Session session = null;
   Transaction transaction = null;
   
   try
   {
   session = HibernateDAOFactory.currentSession();
   transaction = session.beginTransaction();
   session.saveOrUpdate(transferUser);
   transaction.commit();
   insertBoolean = true;
   HibernateDAOFactory.closeSession();
   }
   catch(HibernateException he)
   {
   log.error(he);
   if(transaction != null)
   {
      log.debug("Rolling back transaction");
      try
      {
      transaction.rollback();   
                                insertBoolean = false;
      }
      catch (HibernateException hte)
      {
      log.error("Error on rolling back transaction");
      }
   }
      he.printStackTrace();            }
   catch(Exception e)
   {
      log.error("Unhandled exception");
      log.error(e);
   }      
   return (insertBoolean == true) ? transferUser : null;
   }

USERACCOUNT.HBM.XML

Code:

<hibernate-mapping>
  <class name="UserAccount" table="USERACCOUNT">
    <id name="id" column="userID" type="int" unsaved-value="null">
      <generator class="increment" />
    </id>
    
    <property name="firstname" type="string" />
    <property name="lastname" type="string" />
    <property name="address" type="string" />
    <property name="zipcode" type="string" />
    <property name="city" type="string" />
    <property name="telephone" type="string" />
    <property name="email" type="string" />
    <property name="username" type="string" />
    <property name="password" type="string" />
    <property name="old_password" type="string" />
    <property name="last_login" type="date" />
    <property name="status" type="string" />
    <property name="companyID" type="int" />
    
  </class>
</hibernate-mapping>

Is it possible to provide me with some kind of example?

type="int" and unsaved-value="null" ?

that should work at all, since scalars cannot be null in java. you may wanna change it to "0" instead.

besides check the value of the id property of the transferUser when you're trying to update it. it has to be set to the id of the user you're trying to update.

sorry, i meant:

that should NOT work at all.
