Hello;

A couple of years ago I was investigating DB2 and WO. A couple of people were kind enough to point me in the right direction. I've got another question. I could be wrong, but suspect that DB2 doesn't support deferred RI checks -- if this is the case, how are people managing to work around this problem with EOF? Chuck; does your operations ordering system work for more than just MSSQL?

It works for anything. It is high enough up in EOF to be DB agnostic. It is just _needed_ for MSSQL. I leave it on when using FrontBase (which is most of the time).

David Avendasora pointed out a bug in it if you are using self- referential relationships (entity with a relationship to itself). I gave him a patch, but I really need to rethink some parts of that code. It works for most things, but I think there are some more buggy cases. It also does not (yet) order operations on the same table which self-referential relationships really need.

No deferred constraints. Sigh. DB2 just dropped a notch in the respect that I had for it.
