no - dont see why it should - it was always planned to deprecate sql-datastore in favour of full support in jdbc > And what do you intend to do if this functionality is not general > enough? Fix it after establishing suitable unit tests. It does raise an issue of unit testing jdbc functionality across all the dependent modules - theoretically the API should define the contract, and normal full integration tests should check for any regressions. I would not be suprised however if there are API aspects that are not fully defined - for example transactions against a feature type such a sql query might fail. So, the first step would be to have Gabriel's view, as the original implementor, whether this functionality is equivalent, and then a sanity check against the JDBC data store API to see if we have generated any inconsistencies or hidden contracts that will break things.
