Funny coincidence! I was just trying to get it to work with
PostgreSQL. It mostly works, as already commented on the Jira issue.
The only thing that seems to work unreliably is the initial template
creation. It seems likely that it is the same issue.
But having looked into this I'm a bit worried about the current XEM
implementation.
You should, we really do scary stuff to support multiple DB, and
also
dynamic mapping.
I'm not an expert on Hibernate, but to me it
seems that
entities are expected to be bound to specific tables at initialization
time. So I'm wondering, does Hibernate really support changing the
mappings by switching databases or schemas underneath?
The tricks is that we do
not really support multiple hibernate mapping. All
accessed DBs use the same mapping. These are serious limitations in
multi-wiki mode for mapping related features.
Hibernate does not even knows that we switch the DB under its feet. Even
the pool provider is not aware. This is why we need to set the correct DB
each time we open a session/transaction (always tight together), which
means getting a connection from the pool. We do not support nested
session/transaction, in particular to different DBs for the same reason.
Thank's for your reply. Maybe I've got a correct impression of the
current state of affairs.
I guess this issue will be addressed in the new model implementation,
but I was thinking of this solution, which seems to be possible with a
reasonably small effort and with full backwards compliancy:
Re-register the entity mappings for each wiki, adding a wiki-specific
prefix to each entity name. Then let a custom EntityNameResolver add
the prefix by taking the current database from the execution context.
For instance, templates could be prepared for entity mappings like so:
<class name="${entityNamePrefix}:com.xpn.xwiki.doc.XWikiDocument"
table="xwikidoc" schema="${entitySchemaAttribute}">
And then the SessionFactory is rebuilt whenever a wiki is created or
deleted. I'm a bit confused on how and when custom mappings are
"injected", and there might be other things that I've missed.
But on the other hand, aren't there any frameworks that can do this?
What about Hibernate Shards?
Best regards,
/Andreas
What
prevents it
from generating prepared queries for accessing the entities, which will
be resolved against the initial database/schema, and continue to use
these even after the database or schema changes?
Our config prevent using prepared statements on the DB server.
+1 for your action plan.
Best Regards,
/Andreas

of problem to go back to DBCP so we could do this for 4.3 which leaves us
4.3, 4.4 and 4.5 to test this out. And if later on we find an issue we'll
always be able to release a 4.5.1 that has this one line change to go back
to DBCP.

Unless BoneCP really provide proven
improvements, and not only a potential
performance increase, that will probably not be tremendous, I am not really
in favor of changing a well-know Apache project for a project that as not
really a great team of supporter. From the project info page, I see only
one name. From the forum, there seems to be serious rumors that the project
is no more supported by that guy since more than a year.
So, currently, I am -1.
