PM51614: SDO DATAOBJECT MAY RETURN STALE CHANGESUMMARY IF XSI:TYPE ATTRIB UTE REQUIRED DURING MOVE

APAR status

Error description

• An SDO DataObject may return the wrong ChangeSummary instance
  after being moved, if the move requires the addition of an
  xsi:type attribute. This could result in changes not being
  logged properly.

  ****************************************************************
  If a DataObject d is a member of a tree which has a change
  summary element, d.getChangeSummary() will return the
  ChangeSummary instance for that tree. If d is subsequently
  moved to another tree with a change summary element,
  d.getChangeSummary() may then incorrectly return null rather
  than the ChangeSummary instance of the destination tree. This
  could cause unexpected behavior in user applications.
  

Problem conclusion

• DataObjects now correctly inherit ChangeSummary instances when
  moved into a destination tree with a change summary element.
  
  APAR PM51614 is currently targeted for inclusion in Service
  Level (Fix Pack) 1.0.1.13 of WebSphere Application Server v7
  Feature Pack for Service Component Architecture (SCA) Refresh
