> Key: OLINGO-1452
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OLINGO-1452
> Project: Olingo
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: odata4-client
> Affects Versions: (Java) V4 4.7.1
> Environment: Linux, OSX, Windows.
> Reporter: Joshua Darnell
> Priority: Major
> Fix For: (Java) V4 4.7.1

> Using the Olingo XML Metadata validation methods, they correctly catch the
> case where there is no Key property defined in the metadata for a given
> EntityType definition.
> For example, this will produce an error:
> {code:java}
> <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
> <edmx:Edmx xmlns:edmx="http://docs.oasis-open.org/odata/ns/edmx"
> Version="4.0">
> <edmx:DataServices>
> <Schema xmlns="http://docs.oasis-open.org/odata/ns/edm"
> Namespace="org.example">
> <EntityType Name="SomeEntityType">
> <Property Name="SomeEntityTypeKey" Type="edm.String" Nullable="false"
> />
> </EntityType>
> </Schema>
> <Schema xmlns="http://docs.oasis-open.org/odata/ns/edm"
> Namespace="Default">
> <EntityContainer Name="Container">
> <EntitySet Name="SomeEntityType"
> EntityType="org.example.SomeEntityType"/>
> </EntityContainer>
> </Schema>
> </edmx:DataServices>
> </edmx:Edmx>{code}
>
> However, the Key can be defined without the EntityType's Property definition
> for that field being present, and this is something that the metadata
> validation does not catch.
> {code:java}
> <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
> <edmx:Edmx xmlns:edmx="http://docs.oasis-open.org/odata/ns/edmx"
> Version="4.0">
> <edmx:DataServices>
> <Schema xmlns="http://docs.oasis-open.org/odata/ns/edm"
> Namespace="org.example">
> <EntityType Name="SomeEntityType">
> <Key>
> <PropertyRef Name="SomeEntityTypeKey"/>
> </Key>
> </EntityType>
> </Schema>
> <Schema xmlns="http://docs.oasis-open.org/odata/ns/edm"
> Namespace="Default">
> <EntityContainer Name="Container">
> <EntitySet Name="SomeEntityType"
> EntityType="org.example.SomeEntityType"/>
> </EntityContainer>
> </Schema>
> </edmx:DataServices>
> </edmx:Edmx>{code}
>
> This ticket was created to request that XML metadata validation check both
> whether a Key is present, and that the defined key also has a corresponding
> {{Property}} definition in the metadata. Otherwise, metadata validation
> should fail.
