Angela Schreiber updated OAK-9613:
----------------------------------
Fix Version/s: 1.42.0
> Define API to retrieve parent or null for a given Item
> ------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: OAK-9613
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OAK-9613
> Project: Jackrabbit Oak
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: jackrabbit-api, jcr
> Reporter: Angela Schreiber
> Assignee: Angela Schreiber
> Priority: Major
> Fix For: 1.42.0
>
>
> as discussed in SLING-10011 it would be desirable to allow for retrieval of a
> Item's parent without having to deal with the exceptions that are thrown by
> {{Item.getParent()}} in case the parent does not exist or is not accessible.
> I would like to suggest to introduce {{JackrabbitSession.getParentOrNull(Item
> item)}}, which would return a {{Node}} or null. For backwards compatibility
> the new method should come with a default implementation that calls
> {{Item.getParent()}} and returns null in case of {{AccessDeniedException}} as
> it is thrown by _oak-jcr_ if there is no accessible parent or
> {{ItemNotFoundException}} in case of the root node.
