Hi Geert,
First I want to thank you for your answers to my post about using toplink
with RIFE.
I have another question regarding the constraints defined in my java object.
If I already have my database created before using RIFE/CRUD, do I still
need to specify the schema as constraints in my java object? I understand
that those relationship constraints have to be specified in order to create
the site structure. But for other constraints, like whether it's a valid
data, I think we should not have to if we choose not, we can ask database to
validate for us and the framework can catch the exceptions and display the
page back ( I know this is not a good design , we should do as much
validation as possible before we pass data to database call, it's only for
prototyping usage of the framework).
based on my testing. If I remove a constraint for a particular column, this
column will not be showed up on the page. Is this by design? I though we
should display the fields based on the private data fields defined in the
java objects. Are you concerning that developers may put extra data field
into the object that not corresponding to any columns in the table?
Thank you very much in advance
Jing
