[jira] Updated: (OFBIZ-3557) Enforced sequence does not work with concurrent access

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-3557?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Adrian Crum updated OFBIZ-3557:
-------------------------------

    Attachment: OFBIZ-3557-1.patch

OFBIZ-3557-1.patch fixes PART of the problem. It adds synchronization capability to simple methods, and the problematic methods are flagged as synchronized.

This should fix the duplicate ID problem in a single-server environment. Multi-server setups will require a completely different ID generation algorithm.

> There is a fundamental issue with enforced sequences (for orders, invoices, etc ..) and concurrency.
> For example if two users are creating an order at the same time one of them will see the creation fail with a PK error. The problem is that the "getNextXXXId" rely on the party accounting preference entity, but there is absolutely no guarantee that the last number in the sequence gets updated before another service can read it.
> This is at best very annoying when used only internally but may be unpractical for e-commerce sites.
