| − | This list represents items needed to be done which are architectural in nature, or have to do with the IdAS API/SPI interfaces. Issues not backed by an eclipse bug are [[underlined]].
| + | #REDIRECT [[IdAS_ToDo]] |
| − | | + | |
| − | * Support for "building block" context providers (e.g. that do certain kinds of attribute transformation). [https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=171294 171294]
| + | |
| − | **Each building block context will expect to be told the rest of the chain of contextRefs.
| + | |
| − | ** Perhaps a Factory takes a list of ContextRefs instead of a sole ContextRefs
| + | |
| − | ** When the consumer of IdAS finally gets the Context instance, that instance might be the head of a chain of Context instances. Perhaps the registry only sees the top one.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | * Metadata:
| + | |
| − | ** Metadata access: [[Allow subsets of metadata to be fetched]]. (IHasMetadata.java)
| + | |
| − | ** [[Does IHasMetadata.createMetadata also effectively call addMetadata?]]
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | * Schema: Add method(s) which return the schema as a stream, DOM document, or other iterable object. (IContext.java) [https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=160412 160412]
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | * Digital Subjects
| + | |
| − | ** Filter
| + | |
| − | *** [[Allow filters In other methods: (removeSubject, etc.)]] (IContext.java)
| + | |
| − | ** [[verifySubjectAttributes doesn't leave a way to verify that a DS representing a group contains a specific member in its member value.]] (IContext.java)
| + | |
| − | ** IContext::getSubjectSchema(), IContext::setSubjectSchema() [https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=171295 171295]
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | ** Updates
| + | |
| − | *** Transaction Semantics: Each IdAS API is to be atomic ([[11.16.2006 F2F Outcomes]]). [https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=171290 171290]
| + | |
| − | *** We still need to decide how a joining provider would guarantee atomicity. (IContext.java) [https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=171296 171296]
| + | |
| − | *** Updates to IDigitalSubject instances: [[discuss whether modifications to a returned IDigitalSubject affect the stored subject.]] (IContext.java)
| + | |
| − | *** Can't remove an attribute using updateSubject. (IContext.java) [https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=171297 171297]
| + | |
| − | *** Can't update components of an attribute's value (IContext.java) [https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=171297 171297]
| + | |
| − | *** Can't update single (of many) attribute values or properties. [https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=171297 171297]
| + | |
| − | *** Collisions: Determine what to do when importing data and collisions occur. Does import override, add to , or error when a DS exists? (IContext.java) [https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=171298 171298]
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | ** Data Model
| + | |
| − | *** Document the special "uniqueIdentifier" attribute [https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=171300 171300]
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | * Context
| + | |
| − | ** Does export/import only export/import Digital Subjects, or the entire Context (Metadata, Schema, DS, Relationships)? (IContext.java) [https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=171301 171301]]
| + | |
| − | ** Export/Import Filter Format: Define the format (IContext.java) [https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=171301 171301]]
| + | |
| − | ** Export/Import data representation format. Document what this would look like and how, given the string one could understand what the format is. Is there a registry? (IContext.java) [https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=171301 171301]]
| + | |
| − | ** How does IContext.importData handle data collisions? [https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=171298 171298]

| − | * Relationships [https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=171304 171304]
