--------------------------------
Assignee: Adam Heath
> Improve export/import services
> ------------------------------
>
> Key: OFBIZ-810
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-810
> Project: OFBiz
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: framework
> Reporter: Chris Howe
> Assignee: Adam Heath
> Priority: Minor
> Attachments: ArrangeSelfRelation.patch
>
>
> In postgres (and likely other databases), relational integrity is handled by
> the database and therefore dummy keys that don't get written to the database
> will fail with referential integrity issues if records aren't entered in a
> specific order. To solve this dilemma, Andrew handled the import issue when
> the referential record in question would eventually exist by marking failed
> files for retry OFBIZ-757. Two additional scenarios would make it difficult
> to do straight export/import and thus serve as a true backup service.
> 1) foreign keys may not match the referenced record's case correctly (admin
> != ADMIN != AdMiN )
> 2) the necessary referenced record may be read later in an xml file and
> therefore will always fail referential integrity regardless of how many times
> it is retried
> 1 can be solved by allowing a check/correct service
> 2 can be at least partially solved by writing the xml file in an order where
> the referenced record gets written before the fk
