I was going through part two of the WO Podcast that David LeBer
did, and I noticed a difference in the way his code worked with
MySQL and mine worked with FrontBase.
In the second migration there is a bit of code that adds some
groups and some users into the DB. In one of the lines the user
table is updated to include a foreign key for the relationship to
the group table.
table = database.existingTableNamed("t_user");
table.newIntegerColumn("c_group_id", true);
In David's code the allows null for that second line is false,
instead of true. I had to change it to true in order for the
migration to complete. I think the reason was that FrontBase was
enforcing the constraint on the one existing user in the table
and since the column is empty on creation it threw an error.
Changing that parameter to true allowed the migration to complete.
Did I miss something in following the tutorial, or is this just a
difference in how the DBs operate. Is this something that will
need to be handled on a case by case basis, and if so how do you
account for scenarios where you might need to run an app on
multiple DBs, or move from one DB to another?
When the FB database was created, did the FK constraints get
marked as DEFERRED INITIALLY DEFERRED? Are you using the FB
plugin from Wonder? Are you certain?
The database doesn't appear to have been created that way. It
doesn't have any constraints or reference listed on the foreign key.
That seem unlikely given what you said above. Where are you looking?
This is the SQL listed under the definition of the table in FrontBase
Manager. The c_group_id is the foreign key to the t_group table, and
that is the field I had to set allow null to true on in order to get
the example to work.
create table "_SYSTEM"."t_user"
(
"c_first_name" varchar(255) not null,
"c_last_name" varchar(255) not null,
"c_password" varchar(255) not null,
"c_username" varchar(255) not null,
"id" int,
"c_group_id" int,
PRIMARY_KEY_t_user_id primary key ("id")
);
