Hi there,

While this is a Java Client application I'm working on, I think the
question may be more of a "nested editing contexts" question.
With WO on the client side you can call methods that only exist on
the server. This is useful for doing things that may require
fetching large numbers of records from the database and processing
them without copying them down to the client. This is much like how
a normal web application works.
A WO Java Client application has a version of EOF that sits on the
client, including client-side EOEditingContexts that are basically a
snapshot of the corresponding EC on the server.
Now, the tricky part is when you invoke a remote method on the
server, the first thing the client side EOF does is resync the
client-side EC up to the server. This is basically the same thing as
saving a normal EC, in that it triggers validation.
Does anyone have a way to disable the validation for a specific
Remote Method Invocation (RMI), or and elegant way to not send the
RMI unless the EO passes validation?
Right now I'm adding a EOGenerator method that simply checks for any
properties that cannot be null, and if any are it returns "false"
and I have all my RMI calls wrapped in an "if" statement to keep
them from firing.
No idea... but maybe optionally calling super in validateForSave?
with regards,
