Hi, I'm working on improving the XML import. I find there is a lot of code that try to detect if a imported record has been changed since the last import. If it changed then there is no update done. This behavior is almost never used because by default every xml record is readonly. There is some exceptions:
- ir.lang
- ir.model.access
- ir.model.access.field
- ir.cron
- stock.location
- currency.currency
- product.uom
I think we could drop this feature because it is unuseful and can generate
issue by wrongly not update a record. And we will be sure to have the same
data in the database then in the XML.
For the execptions, I think we can manage them with just the noupdate
attribute. And for the *.access.* models, we can define that we don't allow to
modify the records.
A other benefit of dropping the comparison is that the update will work faster
(I guess) as there will be no more read/compare/write but just write.
What do you think?
