             Summary: Rave is not generating Foreign Keys with default JPA 
implementation
                 Key: RAVE-680
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/RAVE-680
             Project: Rave
          Issue Type: Bug
            Reporter: Anthony Carlucci


Rave is not generating any foreign keys as part of the default OpenJPA 
implementation.

Steps:
1) Start up Rave using the default H2 database
2) Log into H2 web console http://localhost:11111
3) Execute: DELETE FROM WIDGET;  COMMIT;

Step 3 should throw a foreign key constraint error because widget_id is 
referenced in other tables, but it allows the deletes.  I also verified in an 
Oracle installation that there are zero foreign key constraints in the schema.  
There are primary, check, and unique constraints but no foreign key constraints.

It appears that the default OpenJPA behavior[1] is to NOT create foreign keys 
(ugh), but this can be modified with a property:

<property name="openjpa.jdbc.MappingDefaults" 
value="ForeignKeyDeleteAction=restrict, JoinForeignKeyDeleteAction=restrict"/>
