[jira] [Commented] (ZEST-132) Improve Indexing/Query Semantics

["Niclas Hedhman (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ZEST-132?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=15239459#comment-15239459 ] 

Niclas Hedhman commented on ZEST-132:
-------------------------------------

The reason that the EntityStore can see the types sits in with the fact that the UnitOfWork has two parts, UnitOfWorkInstance and ModuleUnitOfWork respectively, where the first is created when newUnitOfWork() is executed, but the ModuleUnitOfWork is injected where it is used (and in turn referencing the UnitOfWorkInstance). This design came about as the first version had missed the whole visibility design completely, effectively requiring everything to be visible (from the top where the UoW was created). 

This mechanism is deeply integrated into the UnitOfWork flow, and there is a huge chunk of code in ModuleUnitOfWork that implements a QuerySource, which I suspect is the key to get the faulty query engines to work again, without ValueFinder concept.


On a larger note, IF we intend to make the UnitOfWork a pluggable Composite type, then we probably need to figure out what the generic mechanism that is at play here.  It is some type of Module Injected Interceptor, or....?? Probably need a whiteboard and a fellow Zester to discuss it in depth.

> The current Indexer/Query semantics are not consistent with the EntityStore semantics and needs to be fixed.
> I can query for an existing entity, IF i can see it's model, AND
> i can see an indexer, AND the entitystore in which the entity is
> persisted can see the same indexer.
> For the EntityStore case, I can get an existing entity if and only if i can see it's model (according to visibility rules).
> The latter should be the case for Query as well.
