Extending the repository - containment relationships
Hello,
I wanted to model the following - A project class with contained attribute of type requirement. Each of these has an attribute called "id". To get a requirement object, do I always have to get the parent "project" object first and then get the requirement from there. Or is there a direct way to get the requirement given the requirement id ? Thanks - Vibha |

If your requirement objects are simple or auditable items and the attribute id is queryable, you can use Item queries (IQueryService) to find requirements matching a given id.

When we model something as a contained item, is it not compulsory that it inherits from HelperItem and not Simple or auditable item ? |
You are right, when you model something as a contained reference, it
will always be a subclass of Helper. You cannot fetch Helpers directly. If you want to fetch the helper directly, it shouldn't be a a containment reference, but should be a normal item reference. - Matt Lavin Jazz Server Team On Tue, 2008-11-11 at 10:28 +0000, vssinha wrote: When we model something as a contained item, is it not compulsory that |
