Andrus,
One more data point (based on another test):
I just change the "Delete Rule" associated with the three ObjEntities and then
tried to save the project. The dialog popped up:
Title: Synchrnize ObjEntity with DbEntity
CheckBox
value: checked
Question: Remove Foreign Keys Mapped as Object Attributes.
Options:
[Cancel [Continue]
1. I selected "continue" and CM did not freeze or report an exception.
Recommendation:
If I understood the previous discussion from earlier today, wouldn't it be more
succinct to say:
Question: "Add DbEntity Foreign Keys to ObjEntity Attribute List? (Not
normally required)"
value: unchecked
Options: [Cancel] [Continue]
because the current question almost sounds as if it is intending to remove the
DbEntity attribute (which is why I was confused as to what actions it was going
to take).
