It really looks to me that this is an orphaned class; its implementation is that of a simple getter and setter so it could not by itself be used to generate sql without additional framework classes (which should then also be in the framework to make this a usable feature). It has not been touched in years except in cross-cutting modifications like fixing whitespace or proper generics syntax. I would vote to remove. It will still be in source control; so in a worst case scenario any dependent upgrading implementation could request a quick patch to pull it back in. -- View this message in context: http://ofbiz.135035.n4.nabble.com/use-of-org-ofbiz-entity-condition-EntityClause-tp2233647p2234154.html Sent from the OFBiz - Dev mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
