Horizontal Inheritance vs Abstract


  • Subject: Horizontal Inheritance vs Abstract
  • From: Ian Joyner <email@hidden>

Perhaps I am not looking in the right place for the answer to this. I have entities using horizontal inheritance where the parent entity is abstract (because all the subclasses get their own copies of attributes).

Now when I created the parent entity, I also gave it a table name in EOModeler, which of course generates a table of that name. However, since the entity is abstract the table is superfluous.

My question is: Is it alright to leave the table name blank so that the table does not get generated for abstract entities? I don't seem to be able to find this in the lists or in any books on EO and horizontal inheritance.

Thanks
