I hope you enjoyed my technical description in the subject heading. :) But it
is, in fact, accurate.
(Context: I am converting from 3.0 to 4.0):
I have been following Cayenne best practices and have been building queries
(and quite a few of the, I might add) with Cayenne-Entity-Property conventions.
Simple example:
Expression exp =
ExpressionFactory.matchExp(Product.IS_DISABLED_PROPERTY, false);
In addition, I have been using the Cayenne PROPERTY definitions as part of my
core logic.
Now I find (in 4.0) that all of these PROPERTY definitions are Deprecated.
Other than my personal opinion, that I am not terribly excited about the
prospect of ripping out all of my core logic, I would like to find out if this
conversion is going to be easier that I estimate. (As usual, I have tried to
search the docs and could not find a good “how-to” for a simple functional
replacement that would also give me access to the String value of the property
(for display purposes).
Question:
If there is a good how-to/tutorial, please provide the link, if not, then could
you please provide one simple example and one more complex example so I can get
to work on this?
Thanks
Joe
