Refactor CRUD API of Tenant services to be consistent with retuning null and
throwing checked exceptions
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: AMDATU-208
URL: http://jira.amdatu.org/jira/browse/AMDATU-208
Project: Amdatu
Issue Type: Task
Components: Amdatu Core - Tenant
Affects Versions: 0.1.0
Reporter: Ivo Ladage - van Doorn
Assignee: Bram de Kruijff
Fix For: 0.1.0
The current CRUD API of the (combined) TenantManagementService and
TenantStorageProvider uses the following inconsistent approach:
create(id) -> returns null if an entity with that id already exists
update(id) -> creates a new entity if it didn't exist yet
delete(id) -> throws checked exception if it doesn't exist
get(id) -> returns null if it doesn't exist
I believe this is not consistent and not correct. IMHO this is how a typical
CRUD API should look like:
create(id) -> throws checked AlreadyExistsException if an entity with that id
already exists
update(id) -> throws checked NotFoundException if an entity with that id does
not exist
delete(id) -> throws checked NotFoundException if an entity with that id does
not exist
get(id) -> returns null OR throws checked NotFoundException if it doesn't
exist (either of the two seems ok to me)
