    Subject: [eclipselink-dev] Initial 
    patch for bug 249037: JPA 2.0 persistinglist item index is available for 
    review.
    
    
     
    What's in the fix:
     
    1. Ordered list field support for DirectCollectionMapping, 
    AggregateCollectionMapping, OneToOne, OneToMany, UnidirOneToMany, 
    ManyToMany.
    2. List order field deemed to be updatable for all 
    mappings except AggregateCollectionMapping - in that case there's a choice 
    of updatable (may alter the field value in the db using UPDATE) and not 
    updatable (must perform first DELETE, then INSERT).
    3. Support for fetch joins and batch reading.
    4. Support for deferred and atribute change tracking (no 
    attr. change tracking for AggregateCollectionMapping).
    5. Fixed setting of a new collection with attribute change 
    tracking (both with and without list order field);
    6. In ComplexUpdateTest changed shouldCompareClone = 
    true. Fixed models,derived tests that used to failed.
    7. Moved orderBy support from ReadAllQuery up to 
    ObjectLevelreadQuery (required for listOrderField 
support).
    8. Added core tests.
     
    What is not done yet.
    
    1. No functionality to find and fix "holes" in order in 
    the db;
2. No functionality yet to query by order 
    index; 
    3. No JPA support (neither feature nor tests)
    
    4. No duplicate support - except 
    DirectCollectionMapping.
5. Some exceptions to be 
    added. 
    6. No support yet for list order field in secondary table 
    (SALARY table for Employee class).
     
    Please send any feedback you may have.
     
    Thanks,
     
    Andrei
