Marko A. Rodriguez updated TINKERPOP3-612:
------------------------------------------
Affects Version/s: 3.0.0.GA
> Support only two types of Cardinality -- SINGLE and MULTI
> ---------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: TINKERPOP3-612
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TINKERPOP3-612
> Project: TinkerPop 3
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: structure
> Affects Versions: 3.0.0.GA
> Reporter: Marko A. Rodriguez
> Assignee: Marko A. Rodriguez
>
> We currently support the following {{Cardinality}} states:
> * {{single}}: one property per property key.
> * {{list}}: any number of properties per property key.
> * {{set}}: multi properties for the property key if and only if the values
> are unique.
> Right now equality for {{set}} is determined by {{Object.equals}}. This may
> be sufficient for most users, but maybe not. Next, this is an expensive
> operation for vendors that don't index on value. Finally, it seems to be of
> limited use in practice due to its complex behavior regarding meta-property
> overwriting. I think its best to NOT include {{set}} as an option --
> simplifies the API and is more aligned with the core semantics of:
> * {{single}}
> * {{multi}}
