------------------------------------
Summary: Smart handling of listener lifecycle annotation with no
entity filter
Key: CAY-1849
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CAY-1849
Project: Cayenne
Issue Type: Improvement
Reporter: Andrus Adamchik
Assignee: Andrus Adamchik
Fix For: 3.2M2
Currently when an annotation on listener has no 'value' or 'entityAnnotations'
parameters, Cayenne fails with an Exception. We should be smarter about this.
We should check the type of the entity argument and use the type to match
against entities. E.g. Persistent or DataObject will match all entities,
MyEntityClass will match just this one entity.
Potentially this could be somewhat expensive to process (as we'll be analyzing
full class hierarchies, matching them against EntityResolver), but maybe we can
make it fairly performant by caching inheritance hierarchies in structures
similar to EntityInheritanceTree.
