Niclas Hedhman commented on POLYGENE-95: ---------------------------------------- This is a very ambitious change, so although it makes the internal a lot simpler, it isn't simple to implement it, due to the large number of infliction points. So, I have dropped it for 3.0... and perhaps it should be dropped altogether. > Entity = Identity + Value > ------------------------- > > Key: POLYGENE-95 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/POLYGENE-95 > Project: Polygene > Issue Type: Sub-task > Reporter: Niclas Hedhman > > By viewing an Entity as a composite of an Immutable Identity and a single > Value, we end up with easier transactional semantics, and a generic "Merge" > facility could be created. > For Entities with a lot of properties, where only a small number change each > time, we would recommend that the static part and the dynamic part are > implemented as two sub-entities, or a main entity with all static bits and a > sub-entity with the changing data. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.15#6346)
