> It should be good to change default delete rule of runtime relationship from
> NO_ACTION to NULLIFY. It will protect us from bogus references in dependent
> objects without reverse relationships.
> Suppose we have such model:
> * ARTIST(ID, NAME) ==> Artist(name, paintings)
> * PAINTING(ID, NAME, ARTIST_ID, GALLERY_ID) ==> Painting(name, artist) // no
> reverse to Gallery
> * GALLERY(ID, NAME) ==> Gallery(name, paintings)
> Delete rule of relationship Artist-toMany-Paintings is set to CASCADE. Expect
> that after deleting Artist corresponding Paintings will be deleted too.. and
> also deleted from galleries thanks to reverse runtime relationship
> Painting-toOne-Gallery created by Cayenne.
> After adding data to database (print result of SelectQuery):
> * Artists: Picasso
> * Paintings: "Girl Reading at a Table" by Picasso
> * Galleries: Metropolitan Museum of Art: ["Girl Reading at a Table" by
> Picasso]
> After deleting object Picasso (print result of SelectQuery):
> * Artists:
> * Paintings:
> * Galleries: Metropolitan Museum of Art: ["Girl Reading at a Table" by null]
> // that is BIZARRE!
> This happens because when cascade delete comes to painting Girl it detects
> relationship with delete rule NO_ACTION. And so gallery stays with bogus
> reference.
> PS. After recreation of ObjectContext all bogus objects of course dissapear
> because they do not exist in database.
