angela commented on JCR-3273:
-----------------------------


> System.out.println(node.getProperty("jcr:mixinTypes").getString()); // mix:referenceable
> System.out.println(node.isNodeType("mix:referenceable")); // false 

in jcr2spi that's always the case before the changes are saved (even if using Node#addMixin) and this is spec compliant

regarding

> node.setProperty("jcr:mixinTypes", "mix:referenceable"); 
> s.save(); 

well... if your node is nt:unstructured then that would most probably not result in the
"regular" jcr:mixinTypes property but one with that name (any name is allowed with nt:unstructured)
and property type STRING that was not recognized as a the protected property you are expecting
to create.... you could equally create it with a BINARY value.

so, on the client side there is no way to found out that you did something illegal.

what remains:

> // neither a normal property nor a mixin type is stored 

this however is odd. could you try this out on a regular jackrabbit-core? that would
be helpful to find out where exactly that problem is located. thanks.

> using jackrabbit 2.4 (the remoting with davex, not tested with others) i can set the property jcr:mixinTypes to a node without getting an exception. before saving, the property is there but isNodeType returns false. when i save and read the node in a new session, it loses the property completely. if i set the mixin with addMixin, i can get it as property afterwards.
> i am a bit confused by this. i guess it makes sense to not allow setting the mixin with setProperty - but then this should throw some exception to tell me i am wrong.
>             Node root = s.getRootNode();
>             Node node = root.getNode("my_node");
>             node.setProperty("jcr:mixinTypes", "mix:referenceable");
>             System.out.println(node.getProperty("jcr:mixinTypes").getString()); // mix:referenceable
>             System.out.println(node.isNodeType("mix:referenceable")); // false
>             s.save();
>             // neither a normal property nor a mixin type is stored
