Thanks.
As I reply before, as C/S Developer I expected the refresh behavior the
default.
Regards.

This is not a bug. What you are seeing is TopLink accessing the shared
cache for the instance data instead of retreiving the data from the
database. In general a locking policy and refreshing can handle any
background database updates. If your data is somewhat volitile then you may
want to configure the TopLink cache to have weak references by setting the
Persistence Unit Property "toplink.cache.type.(default|<class>)" to "Weak".
If you have extreamly volotile data you may want to disable caching by
setting the PU property "toplink.cache.shared.(default|<class>)" to "false".
Please note that CacheType.None is not what you are looking for it as it is
a special case configuration that will result in StackOverFlows in most
models.

Hi.
I'm experimenting with toplink with desktop applications and I think I found
a bug.
Top link doesn't sees the changes make by other applications.
This is the scenario:
1. TopLink application ("TLA" from here) starts and fetch some entities.
2. Another application ("OA" from here) access the same database and updates
one record then commits.
3. TLA's clears its persistence context (EntityManager.clear()) then fetches
again the records. The updated record stills as if weren't updated.
I'm pretty sure that the record is updated in the database but top link is
using existing entity instance without updating with the new data.
My environment:
Top Link 2.0-58g
JDK 1.6.0_03
Windows XP SP2
At this moment this bug is a stopper for multi-user desktop applications.
Where can I report it?
Regards.
