Hi,
> a) SQLSyntaxErrorException : Encountered "NOT" at line 1, column 185
Just seen your SQL generated. "WHERE NOT NOT (A0.OPTIONAL_PC IS NULL)"
That is valid on some RDBMS but maybe Derby is throwing its toys out of the
pram due to it? Current DN code will put brackets in there. i.e NOT (NOT (...))
> b) optionalPC.get().id
Released DN code only supports "optionalPC.get()" and not the access of fields
of the dereferenced object (i.e it didn't do a join to the related table
holding the object). Current DN code does however support that.
As I mentioned previously, if having problems use nightly builds.
> c) Optional.orElse is currently not supported
Yes it is, and has been since DataNucleus v5.0.0-m4. You must be using an old
version.
Regarding a use-case for orElse, the test I use is putting the orElse in the
SELECT clause
Query q = pm.newQuery("SELECT id, stringField.orElse('NotPresent') FROM
mydomain.MyClass");
so I get back the value that is stored when it is set, or some other value if
not set (much like could be achieved with a CASE statement with other
datatypes).
Regards
