Oleg Alexeyev commented on JCR-134:
-----------------------------------

Is there any chance of having this fixed in 1.4?

Our use case is as follows: data format (node structure) for an application may change from one app's version to another (currently it happens pretty often, as it's not stable yet) and nodes are versionable. Conversion is done by creating another nodes' tree and copying properties there, original nodes are deleted. And they, of course, should be deleted completely, along with all the versions and VH...

Thanks,

> since the creation of a VersionHistory is triggered by the creation of a mix:versionable node, the removal should happen automatically, as soon as no references to that version histroy exist anymore. this is the case, when all mix:versionable nodes (in all workspaces) belonging to that VH are deleted, and all the versions in the VH are removed i.e. only the jcr:rootVersion is left. At this point, the VH should be deleted aswell.
