Issue

• Migrating from Hibernate 3 / EAP 5
• During a transaction an entity referenced by an association is removed/deleted
  • Cascade.ALL or Cascade.REFRESH was specified for the association

• When calling EntityManager.refresh(Object) on the (valid) entity associated with the removed/deleted entity an exception is raised:

  ... org.hibernate.HibernateException: instance was not in a valid state
