Removing/Deprecating ExtendedType.validateProperty()
-----------------------------------------------------
Key: CAY-657
URL: http://issues.apache.org/cayenne/browse/CAY-657
Project: Cayenne
Type: Improvement
Components: Cayenne Core Library
Versions: 3.0
Reporter: Andrus Adamchik
Assigned to: Andrus Adamchik
Fix For: 3.0
ExtendedType.validateProperty() is out of place - it is used in
CayenneDataObject self validation and requires CDO to access DataNode, which is
a bad idea. I found only three standard types that actually implement
validation:
CharType (checks for String max length)
BooleanType (checks for NOT NULL)
ByteArrayType (checkes for byte[] max length)
all these validations can be done simply by looking at the DbAttribute, so we
can remove it without losing functionality.
I plan to leave the method around as deprecated, but remove invocations from
the code.
