> When ordering across a relationship like this:
> SelectQuery qual = new SelectQuery(Painting.class);
> qual.addOrdering(new Ordering(Painting.ARTIST_PROPERTY+"."+Artist.NAME_PROPERTY, true, true));
> the SQL looks like this:
> SELECT t0.id FROM Painting t0, Artist t1 WHERE t0.artistId = t1.id  ORDER BY t1.name
> but it should be like this:
> SELECT t0.id FROM Painting t0 LEFT JOIN Artist t1 ON t0.artistId = t1.id  ORDER BY t1.name
> What this means is that at the moment Cayenne will exclude from this query all paintings with no related artist.
> Regardless of how one thinks NULLs should be sorted in this relationship, the addition of a new Ordering in Cayenne shouldn't change the number of records returned from the SelectQuery.
