Have a couple more questions regarding the persistence layer. Actually, I think they're all related. As you know, I'm trying to map API objects generated from the v3 schema to the persistence layer. However, the persistence layer in many instances seems to be built from the v2 structures. Are we doing this to maintain backwards compatibility? Here are the discrepancies I've located so far:
1) The "operator" and "authorizedName" properties on BusinessEntity and TModel no longer exist in v3 but are in the persistence layer objects. 2) CategoryBags now allow one to group KeyedReference groups in a KeyedReferenceGroup structure which refers to a TModel. There is no way to persist this structure in the model. 3) The Tmodel entity in the persistence layer seems incorrect. There's no reference to an OverviewDoc and in fact in v3, there should be a collection of OverviewDocs. There's a TmodelOverview class, but I don't see it referenced anywhere. I also see a collection of TmodelDocDescr, which is presumably the OverviewDoc descriptions? Anyway, I think some work needs to be done here. 4) Contacts allow a collection of personNames in v3 as opposed to just the one provided by the model. As stated before, it may be that our objective is to keep the data structure as close to that of the v2 release as possible. If so, I can try to work around the mappings, however that seems to defeat the purpose of fully implementing v3. Any input or ideas? -J
