.LazyInitializationException when adding to a list that is held within a entity class using hibernat
- by molleman
Right so i am working with hibernate gilead and gwt to persist my data on users and files of a website. my users have a list of file locations. i am using annotations to map my classes to the database. i am getting a org.hibernate.LazyInitializationException when i try to add file locations to the list that is held in the user class.
this is a method below that is overridden from a external file upload servlet class that i am using. when the file uploads it calls this method.
the user1 is loaded from the database elsewhere.
the exception occurs at user1.getFileLocations().add(fileLocation); . i dont understand it really at all.! any help would be great. the stack trace of the error is below
public String executeAction(HttpServletRequest request,
List<FileItem> sessionFiles) throws UploadActionException {
for (FileItem item : sessionFiles) {
if (false == item.isFormField()) {
try {
YFUser user1 = (YFUser)getSession().getAttribute(SESSION_USER);
// This is the location where a file will be stored
String fileLocationString = "/Users/Stefano/Desktop/UploadedFiles/" + user1.getUsername();
File fl = new File(fileLocationString);
fl.mkdir();
// so here i will create the a file container for my uploaded file
File file = File.createTempFile("upload-", ".bin",fl);
// this is where the file is written to disk
item.write(file);
// the FileLocation object is then created
FileLocation fileLocation = new FileLocation();
fileLocation.setLocation(fileLocationString);
//test
System.out.println("file path = "+file.getPath());
user1.getFileLocations().add(fileLocation);
//the line above is where the exception occurs
} catch (Exception e) {
throw new UploadActionException(e.getMessage());
}
}
removeSessionFileItems(request);
}
return null;
}
//This is the class file for a Your Files User
