-------------------------------------
I will improve the Workbench UI and close the issue afterward.
> Workbench tool 'cancel checkout' will delete the entire version series (data
> loss)

> Key: CMIS-365
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CMIS-365
> Project: Chemistry
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: opencmis-workbench
> Affects Versions: OpenCMIS 0.4.0
> Environment: IBM P8 CMIS server implementation and latest OpenCMIS
> workbench.
> Reporter: jay brown
> Assignee: Florian Müller
> Fix For: OpenCMIS 0.4.0
>
>
> While using OpenCMIS workbench:
> (Version: 0.4.0-SNAPSHOT / Build: 20110426-2129)
> Using the workbench to perform a 'cancel checkout' will delete the entire
> version series in the following scenario (and perhaps others)
> (all steps performed with the workbench version above)
> (all steps include a refresh step in between to verify that object is current)
> -Create a doc. (as major) (refer to this as V1)
> -Checkout the doc.
> -Checkin the doc. (refer to this as V1)
> (you can now verify that there are two versions)
> -Checkout the doc. (refer to the working copy as 'pwc')
> -Cancel checkout on the doc.
> Performing a trace on this step shows that the workbench requests a delete
> on the id for doc V2 instead of the id for the PWC. This correctly results
> in deleting the entire version series since there were no additional/optional
> parameters specified, resulting in data loss that user would not expect.
> In our CMIS implementation (where this occurs) our PWC objects have a
> separate/unique id than the version that preceded them. Not sure if this is
> related but it is certainly spec compliant.
> If you would like to get access to the IBM server used in this scenario
> please let me know. It is the same one that we have used in the past for
> interop work.
