If you store anything in Infinispan, it should at the very least be Serializable.
A better solution would be to provide custom Externalizers: https://hibernate.atlassian.net/browse/OGM-37 On 3 February 2014 10:56, Gunnar Morling <gun...@hibernate.org> wrote: > Hi, > > I'm wondering why org.hibernate.ogm.grid.AssociationKey implements > Serializable.

Our problem is probably that we don't have integration tests using Infinispan in modes other than "Local". I suspect I avoided making them as they make the testsuite slower, but it seems you just highlighted an important reason to add them :-/ > > If so, does anything speak against making AssociationKey not implement > Serializable? It's needed. Also I think it's an important "warning flag" in terms of design: never consider hooking references to services in such a key, and strive to keep it as a very simple value holder. -- Sanne > > Thanks, > > --Gunnar > _______________________________________________ > hibernate-dev mailing list > hibernate-dev@lists.jboss.org > https://lists.jboss.org/mailman/listinfo/hibernate-dev _______________________________________________ hibernate-dev mailing list hibernate-dev@lists.jboss.org https://lists.jboss.org/mailman/listinfo/hibernate-dev
