通过回答，有一些关于“Cascade”和id生成的细节缺失。看到问题

此外，值得一提的是，您可以为合并和持久化使用单独的Cascade注释:Cascade。合并和级联。PERSIST将根据使用的方法进行处理。

persist(entity)应该与全新的实体一起使用，将它们添加到DB(如果实体已经存在于DB中，则会抛出EntityExistsException)。

应该使用Merge(实体)，如果实体被分离并被更改，则将实体放回持久性上下文中。

可能持久是生成INSERT sql语句和合并UPDATE sql语句(但我不确定)。

merge和persist之间还有一些区别(我将再次列举已经在这里发布的区别):

D1。Merge不会使传递的实体受管理，而是返回另一个受管理的实例。在另一边持久化将使传递的实体被管理:

//MERGE: passedEntity remains unmanaged, but newEntity will be managed
Entity newEntity = em.merge(passedEntity);

//PERSIST: passedEntity will be managed after this
em.persist(passedEntity);

D2。如果你删除了一个实体，然后决定持久化该实体，你只能使用persist()来做，因为merge会抛出一个IllegalArgumentException。

D3。如果您决定手动处理您的id(例如通过使用uuid)，则合并 operation将触发后续的SELECT查询，以查找具有该ID的存在实体，而persist可能不需要这些查询。

D4。有些情况下，您只是不相信调用您的代码的代码，为了确保没有数据被更新，而是被插入，您必须使用持久化。

另一个观察:

merge()只关心自动生成的id(在IDENTITY和SEQUENCE上测试)，当表中已经存在这样一个id的记录时。在这种情况下，merge()将尝试更新记录。 然而，如果一个id不存在或者不匹配任何现有的记录，merge()将完全忽略它，并要求db分配一个新的。这有时是许多bug的来源。不要使用merge()强制新记录的id。

另一方面，Persist()甚至不允许将id传递给它。它会立即失效。在我的例子中，它是:

原因:org.hibernate.PersistentObjectException:分离实体 传递到持久化

Hibernate-jpa javadoc有一个提示:

抛出:javax.persistence.EntityExistsException——如果实体 已经存在。(如果实体已经存在，则 当持久化操作时，可能会抛出EntityExistsException 或者EntityExistsException或另一个PersistenceException 可能在同花顺或提交时抛出。)

关于merge的更多细节将帮助你使用merge over persist:

Returning a managed instance other than the original entity is a critical part of the merge process. If an entity instance with the same identifier already exists in the persistence context, the provider will overwrite its state with the state of the entity that is being merged, but the managed version that existed already must be returned to the client so that it can be used. If the provider did not update the Employee instance in the persistence context, any references to that instance will become inconsistent with the new state being merged in. When merge() is invoked on a new entity, it behaves similarly to the persist() operation. It adds the entity to the persistence context, but instead of adding the original entity instance, it creates a new copy and manages that instance instead. The copy that is created by the merge() operation is persisted as if the persist() method were invoked on it. In the presence of relationships, the merge() operation will attempt to update the managed entity to point to managed versions of the entities referenced by the detached entity. If the entity has a relationship to an object that has no persistent identity, the outcome of the merge operation is undefined. Some providers might allow the managed copy to point to the non-persistent object, whereas others might throw an exception immediately. The merge() operation can be optionally cascaded in these cases to prevent an exception from occurring. We will cover cascading of the merge() operation later in this section. If an entity being merged points to a removed entity, an IllegalArgumentException exception will be thrown. Lazy-loading relationships are a special case in the merge operation. If a lazy-loading relationship was not triggered on an entity before it became detached, that relationship will be ignored when the entity is merged. If the relationship was triggered while managed and then set to null while the entity was detached, the managed version of the entity will likewise have the relationship cleared during the merge."
