>                 Key: JCR-542
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JCR-542
>             Project: Jackrabbit Content Repository
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>          Components: jackrabbit-core
>    Affects Versions: 1.0.1
>            Reporter: Florent Guillaume
>            Priority: Minor
>
> During schema migrations, it is often the case that an item definition changes. For instance, a property may move from type Long to type String.
> However when jackrabbit is restarted, it's impossible to remove any node having "old" properties:
> javax.jcr.nodetype.ConstraintViolationException: no matching property definition found for {}myprop
>         at org.apache.jackrabbit.core.nodetype.EffectiveNodeType.getApplicablePropertyDef(EffectiveNodeType.java:797)
>         at org.apache.jackrabbit.core.NodeImpl.getApplicablePropertyDefinition(NodeImpl.java:913)
>         at org.apache.jackrabbit.core.ItemManager.getDefinition(ItemManager.java:161)
>         at org.apache.jackrabbit.core.ItemManager.createPropertyInstance(ItemManager.java:522)
>         at org.apache.jackrabbit.core.ItemManager.createItemInstance(ItemManager.java:477)
>         at org.apache.jackrabbit.core.ItemManager.getItem(ItemManager.java:320)
>         at org.apache.jackrabbit.core.NodeImpl.onRemove(NodeImpl.java:674)
>         at org.apache.jackrabbit.core.NodeImpl.removeChildNode(NodeImpl.java:623)
>         at org.apache.jackrabbit.core.ItemImpl.internalRemove(ItemImpl.java:848)
>         at org.apache.jackrabbit.core.ItemImpl.remove(ItemImpl.java:1034)
> I don't understand enough of the internals to know if it's easy, but could something be made more lenient to allow such removals?
