Matt Watson commented on CAY-2146: ---------------------------------- The reason I feel like checking {{!relationship.isToDependentEntity}} is the proper fix, is because that is the difference between a flattened relationship on a normal object vs a flattened relationship on a vertical inheritance child. When we are using using VI all ObjRelationships start from the Parent DBEntity. So as stated in this tickets description {quote}if a child record has a mandatory relationship{quote} then the first DbJoin in the flattened relationship is the one going from the parent to the child, which by default Cayenne modeler marks as {{isToDependentPK}}. {{ObjRelationship.isToDependentEntity}} returns true in this case, which means we must let the rest of the validation occur to ensure it has values, else we can "continue" without the validations. > Vertical inheritance: record still inserted into parent db table when child > validation fails > -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: CAY-2146 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CAY-2146 > Project: Cayenne > Issue Type: Bug > Components: Core Library > Affects Versions: 4.0.M3, 4.0.M6 > Reporter: Dzmitry Kazimirchyk > Assignee: Nikita Timofeev > Fix For: Undefined future > > Attachments: vertical_inheritance_missing_child_test.patch > > > When using vertical inheritance, if a child record has a mandatory > relationship which is not set, commit will still go through without any > errors.
