[jira] [Commented] (OAK-460) Node#getDefinition and Property#getDefinition depend on the accessibility of the parent node

["Jukka Zitting (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OAK-460?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13501876#comment-13501876 ] 

Jukka Zitting commented on OAK-460:
-----------------------------------

Do we need to worry about that? If it's not a big problem, I'd simply have {{getDefinition()}} throw an exception in such cases as the requested information is not available.

> currently the definition of a given item is obtained by reading the
> node type information of the parent node and is thus relying on the
> accessibility of the parent node. as discussed previously in other
> occasions we cannot rely on this as access to the parent might be
> denied.
> in the long run we may want to think about a way on how to determine
> the definition (or parts of the definition such as for example 
> information about the protection status) in the absence of the parent.
