I also added an additional warning message > in case you do not want to persist empty values to the database but still > would like to know what happened. > Comment by Si Chen [04/Oct/05 01:59 PM] [ Permlink ] > Chris- > Just a comment: it's very important that a field in the entity engine is set > to null ONLY when the XML file specifically has an empty attribute (ie, > description=""). Otherwise, there's a lot of seed data that is in separate > XML files, and they could overwrite each other. > Si > Comment by Chris Juettner [10/Oct/05 11:56 AM] [ Permlink ] > Si, > I'm not sure I understand your comment about seed data in seperate XML files > overwriting each other. Shouldn't seed data XML files be entity specific? Why > would one seed data XML file overwrite another? > Do you have any comment on what a better solution is for seed data values > that could be empty? > Thanks > Chris -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
