parameter and exclude changes to runtime relationships

Key: CAY-1662
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CAY-1662
Project: Cayenne
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Lifecycle Extensions
Affects Versions: 3.1M3
Reporter: Andrus Adamchik
Assignee: Andrus Adamchik
I am using @Auditable and @AuditableChild annotations a lot to trace changes to
objects. I need them to be more expressive though. For instance if the actual
object change tracking backend is implemented to save update timestamp in the
same table as the updated object, it would be nice that a change to
"updatedTimestamp" property to not trigger another audit event of its own. I.e.
it would be great to mark certain properties as "excluded" or "ignored" from
audit. Moreover changes in "runtime" relationships (those implicitly created
relationships that allow one way explicit relationships to function) should not
trigger audit events , so those should be added to excludes behind the scenes.
So @Auditable and @AuditableChild will need the following extra method:
String[] ignoredProperties() default {};
