Hi,
When I deleted a model object from the CDO server then looked at the object's table to see if it was gone I found that the original table entry for the object was still there and a second entry has been added for the same CDO_ID but with the CDO_VERSION set to -2. The second entry also seems to be empty of any values as if values like strings have been released. What does this entry signify and will the object get purged at a later time? Is there a setting to perform immediate deletes?
Thanks,
Warwick

Yes.

In branching mode objects that have been deleted in branch X can be "resurrected" by merging them from a branch (point)
Y where they're still alive. IIRC the revision caches need to distinguish between the two situations (1) object has been
deleted and (2) object has never existed. I'm not 100% sure anymore, though.

Yes, I think that's the case even for auditing.

I think that should be okay for nonauditing (which includes non-branching).

I don't think so. You may note that I'm "thinking" a lot here. Finding all this out for sure is almost identical to
addrressing the bug I've cited ;-)
