Seam z EhCache

W poprzednim wpisie wygenerowaliśmy sobie pierwszą aplikację Seamową przy pomocy wtyczki JBoss Tools.

Sposób bardzo fajny do szybkiej prezentacji, ale nie oszukujmy się, jest to sposób dobry dla dziewczyn. Do poważniejszych rozwiązań się nie nadaje.
Głównym minusem jest brak skryptu budującego aplikację, czy to antowego, czy to mavenowego.

Dlatego w dzisiejszym wpisie wygenerujemy sobie prostą aplikację Seamową, przy pomocy narzędzia seam-gen. Kilka dni temu światłu dziennemu ukazał się Seam 2.2.0.GA, ale ja posłużę się wersją 2.1.1.GA, głównie dlatego, że mam już ją zainstalowaną.

Wchodzę zatem do katalogu, w którym zainstalowałem Seama i konfiguruję go wykonując polecenie

Uruchamiam JBossa i wchodzę na adres:
http://localhost:8080/seam_test/
moim oczom ukazuje się znzna już aplikacja


Dodaję zatem jednego użytkownika


i otwieram w trzech zakładkach. Na konsoli JBossa obserwuję zapytania SQL jakie wykonuje aplikacja:

INFO  [STDOUT] Hibernate:

        employee0_.surname as surname2_0_ 
    from
        employees employee0_ 
    where
        employee0_.id=?

Jak widać, trzy razy tem sam SELECT.

Zakładając, że tylko nasza aplikacja kożysta z bazy danych test, możemy się pokusić, o włączenie pamięci podręcznej drugiego poziomu, która umożliwi wyrugowanie powtarzających się zapytań.

Dostawców pamięci drugiego poziomu jest kilku. Ja się zdecyduję na najbardziej chyba popularny EhCache.

Uzupełniam zatem spis plików jar, znajdujący się w pliku
deployed-jars-ear.list, które chcę aby znalazły się w aplikacji ear o wpisy:

commons-lang.jar
commons-collections.jar
commons-beanutils.jar
richfaces-ui.jar
commons-digester.jar
commons-beanutils.jar
commons-lang.jar
hibernate.jar
hibernate-all.jar
hibernate-annotations.jar
hibernate-commons-annotations.jar
hibernate-entitymanager.jar
hibernate-validator.jar
cglib.jar
asm.jar
ehcache.jar

w pliku
persistence-dev.xml
dodaję wpisy

<property name="hibernate.cache.use_second_level_cache" value="true" />
<property name="hibernate.cache.provider_class" value="org.hibernate.cache.EhCacheProvider" />

Cały plik wygląda następująco:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
 <!-- Persistence deployment descriptor for dev profile -->
<persistence xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/persistence"
 xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"

 version="1.0">

 <persistence-unit name="seam_test">
  <provider>org.hibernate.ejb.HibernatePersistence</provider>
  <jta-data-source>java:/seam_testDatasource</jta-data-source>
  <properties>
   <property name="hibernate.dialect" value="org.hibernate.dialect.MySQLInnoDBDialect" />
   <property name="hibernate.hbm2ddl.auto" value="update" />
   <property name="hibernate.show_sql" value="true" />
   <property name="hibernate.format_sql" value="true" />
   <property name="jboss.entity.manager.factory.jndi.name"

   <property name="hibernate.cache.use_second_level_cache"
    value="true" />
   <property name="hibernate.cache.provider_class" value="org.hibernate.cache.EhCacheProvider" />
  </properties>
 </persistence-unit>

</persistence>

natomiast klasę Employee dekoruję adnotacją

@Cache(usage=CacheConcurrencyStrategy.READ_WRITE)

i restartuję aplikację.
Start serwera kończy się komunikatem błędu:

O co chodzi?

Otuż... chodz o błąd, który byłem tak uprzejmy i zgłosiłem.

JBoss wstawia slashe do nazw fragmentów pamięci podręcznej, a EhCache próbuje tworzyć pliki o nazwie takiej jak nazwa fragmentu pamięci podręcznej i ZONK. Co z tym fantem zrobić?

Napisać własny CacheProvider. Wbrew pozorom nie jest to takie trudne.
Tworzę więc klasę
JBoss5EhCacheProvider
która zamieni w nazwach pamięci podręcznej znaki '/' na '_'.

package pl.matt.cache;

import java.util.Properties;

import org.hibernate.cache.Cache;
import org.hibernate.cache.CacheException;
import org.hibernate.cache.CacheProvider;

public class JBoss5EhCacheProvider implements CacheProvider {

 private CacheProvider delegate = new org.hibernate.cache.EhCacheProvider();
 
 @Override
 public Cache buildCache(String name, Properties props) throws CacheException {
  name = changeName(name);
  return delegate.buildCache(name, props);
 }
 
 private String changeName(String name) {
  if (name != null) {
   return name.replace('/', '_');
  }
  return name;
 }

 @Override
 public boolean isMinimalPutsEnabledByDefault() {
  return delegate.isMinimalPutsEnabledByDefault();
 }

 @Override
 public long nextTimestamp() {
  return delegate.nextTimestamp();
 }

 @Override
 public void start(Properties arg0) throws CacheException {
  delegate.start(arg0);
 }

 @Override
 public void stop() {
  delegate.stop();
 }

}

i ustawiam ją w pliku persistence-dev.xml jako CacjeProvider.

<property name="hibernate.cache.provider_class" value="pl.matt.cache.JBoss5EhCacheProvider" />

Czas na kolejny restart aplikacji. Chyba się udało...

[ServerImpl] JBoss (Microcontainer) [5.0.1.GA (build: SVNTag=JBoss_5_0_1_GA date=200902232048)] Started in 1m:4s:297ms

Otwieram kilka razy pracownika w różnych zakładkach.
W konsoli widzę:

[STDOUT] Hibernate: 
    select
        employee0_.id as id0_,
        employee0_.age as age0_,
        employee0_.email as email0_,
        employee0_.name as name0_,
        employee0_.surname as surname0_ 
    from
        employees employee0_ limit ?

tylko raz. Kilka zapytań o obiekty, a do bazy zapytanie poszło jedno.
Sukces pełną gębą.
