<section id="orm-toplink">
<title>Oracle TopLink</title>
<para>Since Spring 1.2, Spring supports Oracle TopLink (<ulink
url="http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/ias/toplink"></ulink>) as
data access strategy, following the same style as the Hibernate support.
Both TopLink 9.0.4 (the production version as of Spring 1.2) and 10.1.3
(still in beta as of Spring 1.2) are supported. The corresponding
integration classes reside in the
<literal>org.springframework.orm.toplink</literal> package.</para>
<para>Spring's TopLink support has been co-developed with the Oracle
TopLink team. Many thanks to the TopLink team, in particular to Jim Clark
who helped to clarify details in all areas!</para>
<section id="orm-toplink-abstraction">
<title><interfacename>SessionFactory</interfacename> abstraction</title>
<para>TopLink itself does not ship with a SessionFactory abstraction.
Instead, multi-threaded access is based on the concept of a central
<literal>ServerSession</literal>, which in turn is able to spawn
<literal>ClientSession</literal> instances for single-threaded usage.
For flexible setup options, Spring defines a
<interfacename>SessionFactory</interfacename> abstraction for TopLink,
enabling to switch between different
<interfacename>Session</interfacename> creation strategies.</para>
<para>As a one-stop shop, Spring provides a
<classname>LocalSessionFactoryBean</classname> class that allows for
defining a TopLink <interfacename>SessionFactory</interfacename> with
bean-style configuration. It needs to be configured with the location of
the TopLink session configuration file, and usually also receives a
Spring-managed JDBC <interfacename>DataSource</interfacename> to
use.</para>
<programlisting language="xml">&lt;beans&gt;
&lt;bean id="dataSource" class="org.apache.commons.dbcp.BasicDataSource" destroy-method="close"&gt;
&lt;property name="driverClassName" value="${jdbc.driverClassName}"/&gt;
&lt;property name="url" value="${jdbc.url}"/&gt;
&lt;property name="username" value="${jdbc.username}"/&gt;
&lt;property name="password" value="${jdbc.password}"/&gt;
&lt;/bean&gt;
&lt;bean id="mySessionFactory" class="org.springframework.orm.toplink.LocalSessionFactoryBean"&gt;
&lt;property name="configLocation" value="toplink-sessions.xml"/&gt;
&lt;property name="dataSource" ref="dataSource"/&gt;
&lt;/bean&gt;
&lt;/beans&gt;</programlisting>
<programlisting language="xml">&lt;toplink-configuration&gt;
&lt;session&gt;
&lt;name&gt;Session&lt;/name&gt;
&lt;project-xml&gt;toplink-mappings.xml&lt;/project-xml&gt;
&lt;session-type&gt;
&lt;server-session/&gt;
&lt;/session-type&gt;
&lt;enable-logging&gt;true&lt;/enable-logging&gt;
&lt;logging-options/&gt;
&lt;/session&gt;
&lt;/toplink-configuration&gt;</programlisting>
<para>Usually, <classname>LocalSessionFactoryBean</classname> will hold
a multi-threaded TopLink <literal>ServerSession</literal> underneath and
create appropriate client <interfacename>Session</interfacename>s for
it: either a plain <interfacename>Session</interfacename> (typical), a
managed <literal>ClientSession</literal>, or a transaction-aware
<interfacename>Session</interfacename> (the latter are mainly used
internally by Spring's TopLink support). It might also hold a
single-threaded TopLink <literal>DatabaseSession</literal>; this is
rather unusual, though.</para>
</section>
<section id="orm-toplink-template">
<title><classname>TopLinkTemplate</classname> and
<classname>TopLinkDaoSupport</classname></title>
<para>Each TopLink-based DAO will then receive the
<interfacename>SessionFactory</interfacename> through dependency
injection, i.e. through a bean property setter or through a constructor
argument. Such a DAO could be coded against plain TopLink API, fetching
a <interfacename>Session</interfacename> from the given
<interfacename>SessionFactory</interfacename>, but will usually rather
be used with Spring's <literal>TopLinkTemplate</literal>:</para>
<programlisting language="xml">&lt;beans&gt;
&lt;bean id="myProductDao" class="product.ProductDaoImpl"&gt;
&lt;property name="sessionFactory" ref="mySessionFactory"/&gt;
&lt;/bean&gt;
&lt;/beans&gt;</programlisting>
<programlisting language="java">public class TopLinkProductDao implements ProductDao {
private TopLinkTemplate tlTemplate;
public void setSessionFactory(SessionFactory sessionFactory) {
this.tlTemplate = new TopLinkTemplate(sessionFactory);
}
public Collection loadProductsByCategory(final String category) throws DataAccessException {
return (Collection) this.tlTemplate.execute(new TopLinkCallback() {
public Object doInTopLink(Session session) throws TopLinkException {
ReadAllQuery findOwnersQuery = new ReadAllQuery(Product.class);
findOwnersQuery.addArgument("Category");
ExpressionBuilder builder = this.findOwnersQuery.getExpressionBuilder();
findOwnersQuery.setSelectionCriteria(
builder.get("category").like(builder.getParameter("Category")));
Vector args = new Vector();
args.add(category);
List result = session.executeQuery(findOwnersQuery, args);
<lineannotation>// do some further stuff with the result list</lineannotation>
return result;
}
});
}
}</programlisting>
<para>A callback implementation can effectively be used for any TopLink
data access. <classname>TopLinkTemplate</classname> will ensure that
<interfacename>Session</interfacename>s are properly opened and closed,
and automatically participate in transactions. The template instances
are thread-safe and reusable, they can thus be kept as instance
variables of the surrounding class. For simple single-step actions such
as a single <literal>executeQuery</literal>, <literal>readAll</literal>,
<literal>readById</literal>, or <literal>merge</literal> call,
<classname>JdoTemplate</classname> offers alternative convenience
methods that can replace such one line callback implementations.
Furthermore, Spring provides a convenient
<classname>TopLinkDaoSupport</classname> base class that provides a
<literal>setSessionFactory(..)</literal> method for receiving a
<interfacename>SessionFactory</interfacename>, and
<literal>getSessionFactory()</literal> and
<literal>getTopLinkTemplate()</literal> for use by subclasses. In
combination, this allows for simple DAO implementations for typical
requirements:</para>
<programlisting language="java">public class ProductDaoImpl extends TopLinkDaoSupport implements ProductDao {
public Collection loadProductsByCategory(String category) throws DataAccessException {
ReadAllQuery findOwnersQuery = new ReadAllQuery(Product.class);
findOwnersQuery.addArgument("Category");
ExpressionBuilder builder = this.findOwnersQuery.getExpressionBuilder();
findOwnersQuery.setSelectionCriteria(
builder.get("category").like(builder.getParameter("Category")));
return getTopLinkTemplate().executeQuery(findOwnersQuery, new Object[] {category});
}
}</programlisting>
<para>Side note: TopLink query objects are thread-safe and can be cached
within the DAO, i.e. created on startup and kept in instance
variables.</para>
<para>As alternative to working with Spring's
<classname>TopLinkTemplate</classname>, you can also code your TopLink
data access based on the raw TopLink API, explicitly opening and closing
a <interfacename>Session</interfacename>. As elaborated in the
corresponding Hibernate section, the main advantage of this approach is
that your data access code is able to throw checked exceptions.
<classname>TopLinkDaoSupport</classname> offers a variety of support
methods for this scenario, for fetching and releasing a transactional
<interfacename>Session</interfacename> as well as for converting
exceptions.</para>
</section>
<section id="orm-toplink-straight">
<title>Implementing DAOs based on plain TopLink API</title>
<para>DAOs can also be written against plain TopLink API, without any
Spring dependencies, directly using an injected TopLink
<interfacename>Session</interfacename>. The latter will usually be based
on a <interfacename>SessionFactory</interfacename> defined by a
<classname>LocalSessionFactoryBean</classname>, exposed for bean
references of type <interfacename>Session</interfacename> through
Spring's <literal>TransactionAwareSessionAdapter</literal>.</para>
<para>The <literal>getActiveSession()</literal> method defined on
TopLink's <interfacename>Session</interfacename> interface will return
the current transactional <interfacename>Session</interfacename> in such
a scenario. If there is no active transaction, it will return the shared
TopLink <literal>ServerSession</literal> as-is, which is only supposed
to be used directly for read-only access. There is also an analogous
<methodname>getActiveUnitOfWork()</methodname> method, returning the
TopLink <interfacename>UnitOfWork</interfacename> associated with the
current transaction, if any (returning <literal>null</literal>
else).</para>
<para>A corresponding DAO implementation looks like as follows:</para>
<programlisting language="java">public class ProductDaoImpl implements ProductDao {
private Session session;
public void setSession(Session session) {
this.session = session;
}
public Collection loadProductsByCategory(String category) {
ReadAllQuery findOwnersQuery = new ReadAllQuery(Product.class);
findOwnersQuery.addArgument("Category");
ExpressionBuilder builder = this.findOwnersQuery.getExpressionBuilder();
findOwnersQuery.setSelectionCriteria(
builder.get("category").like(builder.getParameter("Category")));
Vector args = new Vector();
args.add(category);
return session.getActiveSession().executeQuery(findOwnersQuery, args);
}
}</programlisting>
<para>As the above DAO still follows the Dependency Injection pattern,
it still fits nicely into a Spring application context, analogous to
like it would if coded against Spring's
<classname>TopLinkTemplate</classname>. Spring's
<literal>TransactionAwareSessionAdapter</literal> is used to expose a
bean reference of type <interfacename>Session</interfacename>, to be
passed into the DAO:</para>
<programlisting language="xml">&lt;beans&gt;
&lt;bean id="mySessionAdapter"
class="org.springframework.orm.toplink.support.TransactionAwareSessionAdapter"&gt;
&lt;property name="sessionFactory" ref="mySessionFactory"/&gt;
&lt;/bean&gt;
&lt;bean id="myProductDao" class="product.ProductDaoImpl"&gt;
&lt;property name="session" ref="mySessionAdapter"/&gt;
&lt;/bean&gt;
&lt;/beans&gt;</programlisting>
<para>The main advantage of this DAO style is that it depends on TopLink
API only; no import of any Spring class is required. This is of course
appealing from a non-invasiveness perspective, and might feel more
natural to TopLink developers.</para>
<para>However, the DAO throws plain
<exceptionname>TopLinkException</exceptionname> (which is unchecked, so
does not have to be declared or caught), which means that callers can
only treat exceptions as generally fatal - unless they want to depend on
TopLink's own exception structure. Catching specific causes such as an
optimistic locking failure is not possible without tying the caller to
the implementation strategy. This tradeoff might be acceptable to
applications that are strongly TopLink-based and/or do not need any
special exception treatment.</para>
<para>A further disadvantage of that DAO style is that TopLink's
standard <methodname>getActiveSession()</methodname> feature just works
within JTA transactions. It does <emphasis>not</emphasis> work with any
other transaction strategy out-of-the-box, in particular not with local
TopLink transactions.</para>
<para>Fortunately, Spring's
<literal>TransactionAwareSessionAdapter</literal> exposes a
corresponding proxy for the TopLink <literal>ServerSession</literal>
which supports TopLink's <literal>Session.getActiveSession()</literal>
and <literal>Session.getActiveUnitOfWork()</literal> methods for any
Spring transaction strategy, returning the current Spring-managed
transactional <interfacename>Session</interfacename> even with
<literal>TopLinkTransactionManager</literal>. Of course, the standard
behavior of that method remains: returning the current
<interfacename>Session</interfacename> associated with the ongoing JTA
transaction, if any (no matter whether driven by Spring's
<classname>JtaTransactionManager</classname>, by EJB CMT, or by plain
JTA).</para>
<para>In summary: DAOs can be implemented based on plain TopLink API,
while still being able to participate in Spring-managed transactions.
This might in particular appeal to people already familiar with TopLink,
feeling more natural to them. However, such DAOs will throw plain
<exceptionname>TopLinkException</exceptionname>; conversion to Spring's
<classname>DataAccessException</classname> would have to happen
explicitly (if desired).</para>

&lt;/tx:advice&gt;
&lt;/beans&gt;</programlisting>
<para>Note that TopLink requires an active
<interfacename>UnitOfWork</interfacename> for modifying a persistent
object. (You should never modify objects returned by a plain TopLink
<interfacename>Session</interfacename> - those are usually read-only
objects, directly taken from the second-level cache!) There is no
concept like a non-transactional flush in TopLink, in contrast to
Hibernate. For this reason, TopLink needs to be set up for a specific
environment: in particular, it needs to be explicitly set up for JTA
synchronization, to detect an active JTA transaction itself and expose a
corresponding active <interfacename>Session</interfacename> and
<interfacename>UnitOfWork</interfacename>. This is not necessary for
local transactions as performed by Spring's
<literal>TopLinkTransactionManager</literal>, but it is necessary for
participating in JTA transactions (whether driven by Spring's
<classname>JtaTransactionManager</classname> or by EJB CMT / plain
JTA).</para>
<para>Within your TopLink-based DAO code, use the
<literal>Session.getActiveUnitOfWork()</literal> method to access the
current <interfacename>UnitOfWork</interfacename> and perform write
operations through it. This will only work within an active transaction
(both within Spring-managed transactions and plain JTA transactions).
For special needs, you can also acquire separate
<interfacename>UnitOfWork</interfacename> instances that won't
participate in the current transaction; this is hardly needed,
though.</para>
<para><classname>TopLinkTransactionManager</classname> is capable of
exposing a TopLink transaction to JDBC access code that accesses the
same JDBC <interfacename>DataSource</interfacename>, provided that
TopLink works with JDBC in the backend and is thus able to expose the
underlying JDBC <interfacename>Connection</interfacename>. The
<interfacename>DataSource</interfacename> to expose the transactions for
needs to be specified explicitly; it won't be autodetected.</para>
