angela updated JCR-1508:
------------------------
Component/s: jackrabbit-spi
Issue Type: New Feature (was: Bug)
not a bug but a new feature request. the jcr2spi works as expected with respect
to the current abilities of the SPI. adding the 'check-with-SPI' functionality
as suggested by marcel/julian also requires changes to SPI -> adding additional
component.
> Setting a new property value causes a read of the previous property value

> Key: JCR-1508
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JCR-1508
> Project: Jackrabbit
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: jackrabbit-jcr2spi, jackrabbit-spi
> Affects Versions: 1.4
> Reporter: David Rauschenbach
>
> When using JCR2SPI with a custom SPI, getProperty is called when one attempts
> to set a new property value with disregard to the previous value. The current
> JCR2SPI implementation causes a getPropertyInfo, which requests the old value
> from the back-end. This is fundamentally unsound, and kills performance.
> An SPI has no choice but to guard against this by returning a PropertyInfo
> proxy that performs lazy-loading of the value. The problem is that if an
> error occurs when dereferencing the value, and when performing the lazy-load,
> JCR2SPI is ill-suited to hande an unchecked exception at such a time.
> Besides, it is a "hack upon a hack", because JCR2SPI could do this work
> itself, by making proper use of the SPI functions for requesting property
> type information.
