Andrus Adamchik updated CAY-2778:
---------------------------------
Description:
For an entity inheritance hierarchy, fetching on superclass should allow
prefetches on subclasses. Semantically they can be resolved as DbRelationships,
and the results can be applied only to the right subclasses.
E.g. in our unit tests (where somewhat weirdly, User inherits from Role), the
following code throws, while it should succeed (see attached patch with a full
test) :
{noformat}
ObjectSelect.query(Role.class)
.prefetch(User.USER_PROPERTIES.joint())
.select(context)
{noformat}
This would allow to properly deep-refresh objects across the inheritance
hierarchy.
