Hi,
What I can see when I use paging in combination with SQLTemplate is this:
Cayenne first runs the main SQLTemplate query which is stored in memory
When I get the first page it determines the key values of the main query
which it then
uses in a new query which will return the main table plus the detail
table data.
This will produce the main table object through which the detail table
is accessible.
The problem here is that the key of the main table is used only. The
SQLTemplate query was manually
constructed and does a query on the main table and a left join to the
detail table so this will produce
a duplicate key value where a main table record has 2 related detail
table records.
This doesnt have to be a problem, actually the query does return the
number of records used as page
size. But internally in cayenne something weird happens. Somehow the
duplicate records are remove
and the IncrementalFaultList.checkPageResultConsistency method throws an
exception for this.
Because the main query returns the main object but also the detail
object I find it strange
that the query generated for the page only uses the main table key. I
would expect that
it also would use the key of the detail table.
An example. Say I have a main table key 1 and related detail records
with key 1, 2 and 3.
Say I run the SQLTemplate which returns key 1 but only key 1 and 2 for
the detail table.
The page query will now run for all detail records and return all
records which I did not
request.
From this I'm concluding that if an SQLTemplate is used it is not
usefull (read: faulty) to
include the detail table in this query. When paging is used all the
detail tables are automatically
queried.
If I write the main SQLTemplate query such it only returns the main
object then the
Exception does not occur.
My conclusion is then that if you want to use paging with SQLTemplate
the main
query should only return the main table. Prefetching will then return
ALL related
table records.
