ah ok, thx! But I still don't understand the whole thing :-(
No the test reacts like this @Test public void testChildContext() { // create test instance MiiPickingcontainer container = MiiPickingcontainer.createInstance(context, "9999", "9999", "JUNIT"); context.commitChanges(); Assert.assertEquals(0, context.modifiedObjects().size()); ObjectContext childContext = runtime.newContext(context.getChannel()); // move object to child context container = childContext.localObject(container); container.setStatusid(330); Assert.assertEquals(0, context.modifiedObjects().size()); Assert.assertEquals(1, childContext.modifiedObjects().size()); // commit childcontext childContext.commitChangesToParent(); Assert.assertEquals(0, context.modifiedObjects().size()); Assert.assertEquals(0, childContext.modifiedObjects().size()); } and I thought the commitChangesToParent() moves the object from child to parent context? So after the commitToParent() the data is written and committed to db? regards Meex 2013/9/5 John Huss <johnth...@gmail.com> > You have to assign the result of localObject. > > John > On Sep 5, 2013 12:59 AM, "Markus Reich" <markus.re...@markusreich.at> > wrote: > > > Hi, > > > > I've a question concering child contexts, when I add an object to a child > > context with method localObject, I thought the object is really from > parent > > to child context? > > > > But when I run the following JUnit Test, it doesn't fail, although it > > should? > > > > @Test > > public void testChildContext() { > > // create test instance > > MiiPickingcontainer container = > > MiiPickingcontainer.createInstance(context, "9999", "9999", "JUNIT"); > > context.commitChanges(); > > > > Assert.assertEquals(0, context.modifiedObjects().size()); > > ObjectContext childContext = > runtime.newContext(context.getChannel()); > > // move object to child context > > childContext.localObject(container); > > container.setStatusid(330); > > Assert.assertEquals(1, context.modifiedObjects().size()); > > Assert.assertEquals(0, childContext.modifiedObjects().size()); > > // commit childcontext > > childContext.commitChangesToParent(); > > Assert.assertEquals(1, context.modifiedObjects().size()); > > Assert.assertEquals(0, childContext.modifiedObjects().size()); > > > > // clean up > > context.deleteObjects(container); > > context.commitChanges(); > > } > > > > I'm using Cayenne 3.2M1 > > > > kind regards > > > > Meex > > > -- *Markus Reich* Moosbach 28/2 6392 St. Jakob i.H. www.markusreich.at / www.meeximum.at markus.re...@markusreich.at
