Add support for REVEND_TSTMP which will enable SQL table partitioning by time ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: HHH-5371 URL: http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/browse/HHH-5371 Project: Hibernate Core Issue Type: New Feature Components: envers Affects Versions: 3.6.0.Beta1 Reporter: Matthew B. Jones Assignee: Erik-Berndt Scheper Fix For: 3.6.1, 4.0.0.Alpha1 Attachments: HHH-5371-revend_tstmp-documentation-20100908.patch, HHH-5371-revend_tstmp-revised-20100908.patch, revend_tstmp.txt There is strong desire to be able to purge old records out of a relational database by using table partitioning. In order to partition a table, you need to partition it on a column that exists within the table. So, in order to partition the _AUD tables by expired time, the timestamp of REVEND must be present within the table.
