Title: Issue with

orphanRemoval = true

and

FetchType.LAZY

in Hibernate 6.6.X

Body:

I'm encountering an issue while using Hibernate 6.6.X with

orphanRemoval = true

in combination with

FetchType.LAZY

.

Context:

I have a parent entity that has a one-to-many relationship with child entities. I've configured the relationship as follows:

@Entity
public class Parent {
    @OneToMany(mappedBy = "parent", cascade = CascadeType.ALL, orphanRemoval = true, fetch = FetchType.LAZY)
    private Set<Child> children = new HashSet<>();
}

Problem:

When I try to remove a child entity from the collection of children in the parent entity, it does not seem to get removed properly if the parent entity is loaded lazily. I suspect that it might be related to the way Hibernate handles the lazy loading of collections in conjunction with orphan removal.

Question:

1. Has anyone experienced this issue with

   orphanRemoval = true
   

   and

   FetchType.LAZY
   

   in Hibernate 6.6.X?

2. What would be the best approach to ensure that orphaned entities are removed correctly when using lazy loading?

3. Is there a known workaround or solution to this problem?

Any insights or suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
