Hey guys--
I'm trying to grok the vertical inheritance method and have a
question/concern:
I tried modeling a couple of tables using the vertical method. I have 3
tables now:
ASSET
ASSET_MASTER
ASSET_VERSION
I created everything according to the docs.. Set up properties and
relationships at the appropriate table level, created 3 ObjEntities, and
used flattened relationships on the subclasses to access subclass
properties.
Properties work great. The problem is associations, especially to-many
associations. If I have a to-many association on a child entity, I set up
its DbRelationship on the child table, and use a flattened relationship to
access it. But then the modeler claims that my relationship is read-only
(presumably because i'm going across a flattened relationship).
Is it really read-only? Am I doing something wrong? The example docs only
show properties at the subclass so it doesn't address this situation.
Don't see how I could make vertical inheritance work if I can't manage
to-many assocs at the subclass level.
Thanks for the help--
Dave
