In my data model I have a class: ReadOnlyDesigners that contains a collection of instances of class: Designer. These map directly to database tables of the same names. I'd like to specify that from the perspective of the the Designers class the Designer instances are readonly. But I'd also like to have a collection class: CRUDDesigners that contains a collection of Designer instances that are fully modifyable. It seems from the repository docs that read-only-ness is controlled w/in the class' field-descriptor for the contained class. Is there anyway to specify this behavior at the collection level?
So far all I can think of is to extend my Designer class and create a ReadOnlyDesigner and put a second entry in the repository.xml with readonly attributes for this class, and then make ReadOnlyDesigners contain ReadOnlyDesigner instances.
Thanks for any ideas. Steve
