Hi,

For a given application, I have to perform datastore transactions on 
entities which have no parent. Unless I misunderstood, this is not possible.

In order to avoid creating dummy entities in the datastore, I am creating a 
"fake ancestor" key to an entity that does not exists in the datastore.

I would have two questions related to this :

--> Is there any other solution to have transactions with no entity being 
the parent ?
--> Will this solution be supported in the long-term by Google ? Just would 
like to avoid being in a dead-end when an upgrade is rolled-out.



public class AAA {

    @Parent Key<AAA> ancestorKey; // This is a hack to make sure we can 
support transactions
    @Id     Long Id;
    // OTHER FIELDS 
    
    public static Key<AAA> getAncestorKey() {
        return( new Key<AAA> (AAA.class, new Long("1")));
    }
}
