I'm having a problem where the addition of spring's transaction management to an application causes Hibernate to throw the following error:
org.hibernate.HibernateException: A collection with cascade="all-delete-orphan" was no longer referenced by the owning entity instance: org.fstrf.masterpk.domain.ReportCriteriaBean.treatmentArms

I'm using Spring 2.5 and annotations to implement this management. Here is the class containing the saveNewReportCriteria method (which, as can be seen by the stack trace, is causing the error)
@Transactional(
propagation = Propagation.REQUIRED,
isolation = Isolation.DEFAULT,
readOnly = false)
public class HibernateReportCriteriaDao implements ReportCriteriaDao{
private HibernateTemplate hibernateTemplate;
public Integer saveNewReportCriteria(ReportCriteriaBean reportCriteria) {
hibernateTemplate.save(reportCriteria);
List<Integer> maxIdList = hibernateTemplate.find("SELECT max(id) from ReportCriteriaBean");
logger.info("
ID of newly saved list is: " + maxIdList.get(0));
return maxIdList.get(0);
}
public void setHibernateTemplate(HibernateTemplate hibernateTemplate) {
this.hibernateTemplate = hibernateTemplate;
}
}
Then I added the following sections to my configuration files to tell spring that I am using annotation driven transaction management:
<bean id="actgDataSource" class="org.springframework.jndi.JndiObjectFactoryBean">
<property name="jndiName" value="jdbc/actg" />
<property name="resourceRef" value="true" />
</bean>
<bean id="transactionManager" class="org.springframework.jdbc.datasource.DataSourceTransactionManager">
<property name="dataSource" ref="actgDataSource" />
</bean>
<tx:annotation-driven/>
I'm pretty sure that the de-referencing error is being caused due to the proxy class that Spring AOP creates and uses in order to handle transaction management, but I have no idea how I'd go about fixing it.
