hi marek the JCR specification mandates that a referenceable node cannot be removed as long there are reference properties pointing to it.
whether that constraint is enforced on transient changes or just once the changes are persisted is AFAIK an implementation detail. if i remember correct jackrabbit-core immediately enforces that constraint while the other implementation in jcr2spi doesn't. if you don't need that reference-consistency you may want use a property of type WEAKREFERENCE or maybe even PATH. regards angela On 2/14/13 10:07 AM, msl...@email.cz wrote:
Hello, I want to ask if Node.setProperty(String,String,PropertyType.REFERENCE) does some consistency check of input node id? I know once property is set it is not possible to remove node because of existing reference. So I want to know when is consistency check performed when new reference property is added. Thanks Marek
