Hi,
For performance optimization a OC was introduced to control all the include and
exclude artifacts of backend calls. The default OC assigned to the session has
some includes which are set to false by default. For instance Policies and ACLs:
public OperationContextImpl() {
setFilter(null);
setIncludeAcls(false);
setIncludeAllowableActions(true);
setIncludePolicies(false);
setIncludeRelationships(IncludeRelationships.NONE);
setRenditionFilter(null);
setIncludePathSegments(true);
setOrderBy(null);
setCacheEnabled(false);
generateCacheKey();
setMaxItemsPerPage(100); // default
}
As a result calls like document.getAcl() simply return NULL. This is error
prone and it is also quite hard to find out the reason why the result is null.
I think this can be improved by following options:
a) set includes by default to true (optimize only if required)
b) throw a meaningful exception in case of the artifact is excluded
c) load artifact lazy by having an extra call to the backend
My favor would be a) and c) or at least c). WDYT?
Regards,
Stephan
