SPI: Introduce NodeInfo.getChildInfos()
---------------------------------------
Key: JCR-1405
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JCR-1405
Project: Jackrabbit
Issue Type: New Feature
Components: jackrabbit-spi
Reporter: angela
Improvement suggested by Marcel:
ChildInfo is basically a stripped down NodeInfo. With little effort it would
even be possible to have NodeInfo extends ChildInfo. Not sure how useful that
is, but since we don't have that inheritance in code and at the same time
nearly a 100% overlap it makes me suspicious.
Here's another idea:
introduce a method ChildInfo[] NodeInfo.getChildInfos(). The method either
returns:
- all child infos, which also gives the correct number of child nodes. this may
also mean that an empty array is returned to indicate there are no child nodes.
- null, to indicate that there are *lots* of child nodes and the method
RepositoryService.getChildInfos() with the iterator should be used.
