Hi,
chapter "15.3 Relationship Mapping" of the spec defines that changes to
the field mapped via “mapped-by” are not reflected in the datastore.
Should it be "may not be reflected" because the current wording seems to
exclude a JDO implementation that supports managed relationships such
that it keeps both sides of a relationship in sync either at runtime or
at commit. I'm a little bit worried about ignoring relationship changes,
just because the user decide to modify the "wrong" side of the
relationship. However, the last sentence before "Mapping Strategy"
sounds different "... although the column(s) will be changed during
commit and will therefore be visible by both sides in the next
transaction.".
Regards Michael
