Hi Deepak,
the best you can do at the moment (other than providing a patch :-) is to
"export" the parented collection as a standalone collection:
public class A {
private SortedSet<B> children = ...
public SortedSet<B> getChildren() { return children; }
public void setChildren(SortedSet<B> children) { this.children =
children; }
// simply exposes (a copy of) the parented collection as a standalone
collection
@ActionSemantics(Of.SAFE)
public SortedSet<B> bulkDelete() { return new TreeSet<B>(children); }
}
and then:
public class B {
private A parent;
public A getParent() { return parent; }
public void setParent(A parent) { this.parent= parent; }
@Bulk
public SortedSet<B> delete() {
A parent = getParent();
container.removeIfNotAlready(this);
TreeSet<B> remainingChildren = parent.bulkDelete();
remainingChildren.remove(this);
return remainingChildren;
}
}
It might also work simply as:
@Bulk
public void delete() {
container.removeIfNotAlready(this);
}
I have a feeling that if the bulk action returns void, then the standalone
collection is refreshed.
Hope that helps. If the user experience isn't good enough, though, then do
go ahead and raise a ticket if you wish for @Bulk being supported on
parented collections. No guarantees when it'll be implemented, though...
Cheers
Dan
