Thanks for responding. Now I see a small confusion for users here: what
is the access type for class Derived in the following example? Is it
PROPERTY because the Base class uses PROPERTY access or is it FIELD
because the mapping file level default is FIELD?
(Note: the XML fragment might not comply with orm schema, it is just
used as example)
<entity-mappings>
<!-- mapping file level default is FIELD access-->
<access>FIELD</access>
<entity class="Base" access="PROPERTY">
<entity>
<entity class="Derived"> <!-- Derived extends Base -->
<entity>
</entity-mappings>
Reading the spec, I don't find a clear cut answer. So my worry is do
have such tests in CTS to ensure portability of applications?
Thanks,
Sahoo
