Andrus Adamchik updated CAY-2969:
---------------------------------
Summary: Extneder API for "soft" delete (was: Make "soft" delete the
first-class citizen)
> Extneder API for "soft" delete
> -------------------------------
>
> Key: CAY-2969
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CAY-2969
> Project: Cayenne
> Issue Type: Task
> Reporter: Andrus Adamchik
> Assignee: Andrus Adamchik
> Priority: Major
> Fix For: 5.0-M3
>
>
> Let's make soft delete more convenient to configure via an extender API:
> {noformat}
> CoreModule.extend(b).useSoftDeleteIfColumnPresent("db_attribute_name");{noformat}
> And use this opportunity to rework the backend, treating soft delete as a
> first-class citizen during batch generation on commit instead of the current
> hack with delete batch interception.
> _This will make the feature work better, but it is still not fully native. In
> the future we may improve it in the following ways:_
> * _Automatically and implicitly add a qualifier to each soft-delete entity
> to filter out soft-deleted columns_
> * _Allow to pick a single column in the entity as "soft delete" column,
> helping the Modeler to exclude it from ObjAttributes_
