Detached object: merge(), remove()

juergen.zimmermann · **Joined:** Tue May 24, 2005 9:06 am **Posts:** 64

I'm using JBoss 4.0.5CR1 with EJB3 RC9. I get an IllegalArgumentException When I invoke merge() or delete() for a detached object.

This semantics is new since RC9. Is this intended or a bug? Any hint is appreciated!

delete on a detached object is illegal
merge on a detached object should work (that's the goal).
However, check http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/browse/EJB-221

Tried it with JBoss 4.0.5CR1 and EJB CR9: works the same was as CR8.

Thank you!
