Author [jira] Updated: (JDO-411) Attempt to bulk-delete Employee records

Michael Bouschen updated JDO-411:
---------------------------------

Attachment: JDO-411.patch

I agree these tests need to be changed, because they do not take existing references to the instances to be deleted into account.

The whole point in adding the delete API to the Query interface is to support instance removal without the need to load these instances before the removal. I think using class Person to test the delete API is not a good idea. As Marc pointed out, it requi
res nulling relationship fields prior to the removal and this means loading instances into memory. So it might happen that the instances to be deleted are loaded prior to removal which is not the intent of the test case.

I propose to change the test case and use a class where the database schema does not include any foreign keys referencing the table for the class. In the company model class Insurance is an example for such a class. The attached patch for review implement
s this proposal.

> Multiple test cases attempt to bulk delete instances of Person. However, the Employee subclass of Person might wind up having a non-nullable foreign key reference to Insurance or another Employee (via the "mentor" field). While the defaut Derby TCK sche

ma does not have this constraint, in order to be flexible for other databases that will enforce the foreign key by default, some effort should be made to ensure that there are no relation constraints before the bulk deletes are attempted. This can be done
by adding a nullForeignKeyReferences() method that will manually make sure that the relations are nulled. See the attached patch.
