[dna-issues] [JBoss JIRA] Resolved: (DNA-539) AbstractJcrNode.location.getUuid() Returns Null for Referenceable Nodes

AbstractJcrNode.location.getUuid() Returns Null for Referenceable Nodes ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: DNA-539 URL: https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/DNA-539 Project: DNA Issue Type: Feature Request Components: JCR Affects Versions: 0.6 Reporter: Brian Carothers Assignee: Brian Carothers Priority: Trivial Fix For: 0.7 For non-referenceable nodes, AbstractJcrNode.location.getUuid() returns the node's UUID if the node has a UUID (which is really a function of which connector the node maps to). For referenceable nodes, AbstractJcrNode.location.getUuid() returns null but AbstractJcrNode.location.getIdProperty(JcrLexicon.UUID) returns a non-null value. Put another way: AbstractJcrNode.location has dna:uuid but not jcr:uuid if the node is not referenceable. AbstractJcrNode.location has jcr:uuid but not dna:uuid if the node is referenceable This means that the only safe way to get the corresponding UUID for a node (if one exists) is to run a code snippet like this: if (location.getUuid() != null) return location.getUuid(); org.jboss.dna.graph.property.Property uuidProp = location.getIdProperty(JcrLexicon.UUID); if (uuidProp == null) return null; return this.cache.factories().getUuidFactory().create(uuidProp.getFirstValue()); It would be nice if referenceable nodes still have dna:uuid set in their location field.
