How to turn off NHibernate's automatic (dirty checking) update behaviour?

问题

I've just discovered that if I get an object from an NHibernate session and change a property on object, NHibernate will automatically update the object on commit without me calling Session.Update(myObj)!

I can see how this could be helpful, ~~but as default behaviour it seems crazy!~~

Update: I now understand persistence ignorance, so this behaviour is now clearly the preferred option. I'll leave this now embarrassing question here to hopefully help other profane users.

How can I stop this happening? Is this default NHibernate behaviour or something coming from Fluent NHibernate's AutoPersistenceModel?

If there's no way to stop this, what do I do? Unless I'm missing the point this behaviour seems to create a right mess.

I'm using NHibernate 2.0.1.4 and a Fluent NHibernate build from 18/3/2009

Is this guy right with his answer?

I've also read that overriding an Event Listener could be a solution to this. However, IDirtyCheckEventListener.OnDirtyCheck isn't called in this situation. Does anyone know which listener I need to override?

回答1:

You can set Session.FlushMode to FlushMode.Never. This will make your operations explicit

ie: on tx.Commit() or session.Flush(). Of course this will still update the database upon commit/flush. If you do not want this behavior, then call session.Evict(yourObj) and it will then become transient and NHibernate will not issue any db commands for it.

Response to your edit: Yes, that guy gives you more options on how to control it.

My solution:

In your initial ISession creation, (somewhere inside your injection framework registrations) set DefaultReadOnly to true.
In your IRepository implementation which wraps around NHibernate and manages the ISession and such, in the Insert, Update, InsertUpdate and Delete (or similar) methods which call ISession.Save, Update, SaveUpdate, etc., call SetReadOnly for the entity and flag set to false.

回答3:

Calling SaveOrUpdate() or Save() makes an object persistent. If you've retrieved it using an ISession or from a reference to a persistent object, then the object is persistent and flushing the session will save changes. You can prevent this behavior by calling Evict() on the object which makes it transient.

Edited to add: I generally consider an ISession to be a unit of work. This is easily implemented in a web app. using session-per-request but requires more control in WinForms.

We did this by using the Event Listeners with NH (This isn't my work - but I can't find the link for where I did it...).

We have a EventListener for when reading in the data, to set it as ReadOnly - and then one for Save (and SaveOrUpdate) to set them as loaded, so that object will persist when we manually call Save() on it.

That - or you could use an IStatelessSession which has no State/ChangeTracking.

This sets the entity/item as ReadOnly immediately on loading.

I've only included one Insertion event listener, but my config code references all of them.

/// <summary>
/// A listener that once an object is loaded will change it's status to ReadOnly so that
/// it will not be automatically saved by NH
/// </summary>
/// <remarks>
/// For this object to then be saved, the SaveUpdateEventListener is to be used.
/// </remarks>
public class PostLoadEventListener : IPostLoadEventListener
{
    public void OnPostLoad(PostLoadEvent @event)
    {
        EntityEntry entry = @event.Session.PersistenceContext.GetEntry(@event.Entity);

        entry.BackSetStatus(Status.ReadOnly);
    }
}

On saving the object, we call this to set that object to Loaded (meaning it will now persist)

public class SaveUpdateEventListener : ISaveOrUpdateEventListener
{
    public static readonly CascadingAction ResetReadOnly = new ResetReadOnlyCascadeAction();

    /// <summary>
    /// Changes the status of any loaded item to ReadOnly.
    /// </summary>
    /// <remarks>
    /// Changes the status of all loaded entities, so that NH will no longer TrackChanges on them.
    /// </remarks>
    public void OnSaveOrUpdate(SaveOrUpdateEvent @event)
    {
        var session = @event.Session;
        EntityEntry entry = session.PersistenceContext.GetEntry(@event.Entity);

        if (entry != null && entry.Persister.IsMutable && entry.Status == Status.ReadOnly)
        {
            entry.BackSetStatus(Status.Loaded);
            CascadeOnUpdate(@event, entry.Persister, @event.Entry);
        }
    }

    private static void CascadeOnUpdate(SaveOrUpdateEvent @event, IEntityPersister entityPersister, 
        object entityEntry)
    {
        IEventSource source = @event.Session;
        source.PersistenceContext.IncrementCascadeLevel();
        try
        {
            new Cascade(ResetReadOnly, CascadePoint.BeforeFlush, source).CascadeOn(entityPersister, entityEntry);
        }
        finally
        {
            source.PersistenceContext.DecrementCascadeLevel();
        }
    }
}

And we implement it into NH thus so:

    public static ISessionFactory CreateSessionFactory(IPersistenceConfigurer dbConfig, Action<MappingConfiguration> mappingConfig, bool enabledChangeTracking,bool enabledAuditing, int queryTimeout)
    {
        return Fluently.Configure()
            .Database(dbConfig)
            .Mappings(mappingConfig)
            .Mappings(x => x.FluentMappings.AddFromAssemblyOf<__AuditEntity>())
            .ExposeConfiguration(x => Configure(x, enabledChangeTracking, enabledAuditing,queryTimeout))
            .BuildSessionFactory();
    }

    /// <summary>
    /// Configures the specified config.
    /// </summary>
    /// <param name="config">The config.</param>
    /// <param name="enableChangeTracking">if set to <c>true</c> [enable change tracking].</param>
    /// <param name="queryTimeOut">The query time out in minutes.</param>
    private static void Configure(NHibernate.Cfg.Configuration config, bool enableChangeTracking, bool enableAuditing, int queryTimeOut)
    {
        config.SetProperty(NHibernate.Cfg.Environment.Hbm2ddlKeyWords, "none");
        if (queryTimeOut > 0)
        {
            config.SetProperty("command_timeout", (TimeSpan.FromMinutes(queryTimeOut).TotalSeconds).ToString());
        }

        if (!enableChangeTracking)
        {
            config.AppendListeners(NHibernate.Event.ListenerType.PostLoad, new[] { new Enact.Core.DB.NHib.Listeners.PostLoadEventListener() });
            config.AppendListeners(NHibernate.Event.ListenerType.SaveUpdate, new[] { new Enact.Core.DB.NHib.Listeners.SaveUpdateEventListener() });
            config.AppendListeners(NHibernate.Event.ListenerType.PostUpdate, new[] { new Enact.Core.DB.NHib.Listeners.PostUpdateEventListener() });
            config.AppendListeners(NHibernate.Event.ListenerType.PostInsert, new[] { new Enact.Core.DB.NHib.Listeners.PostInsertEventListener() });
        }
    }
