Craig Russell commented on JDO-345: ----------------------------------- I think a word about why we used the term "mutating method" is in order here. The expert group did not want to allow the user and implementation to use query as a back door to a generalized UPDATE facility, so we said specifically that mutating methods were not allowed, even in vendor extensions. That said, there are only a small number of standard mutating methods that return a value, and hence even could be used in a filter. So I think we are safe in dropping this test and we can debate the value of a new test later on if someone wants to raise the issue again. > MethodsAndObjectConstructionNotSupported (A14.6.2-8) should allow getX() > ------------------------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: JDO-345 > URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JDO-345 > Project: JDO > Type: Test > Components: tck20 > Reporter: Ilan Kirsh > > According to the spec: > "Methods, including object construction, are not supported, except for > Collection, String, and Map methods documented below.
