Allow importing VDBs with conflicting model ------------------------------------------- Key: TEIID-4934 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/TEIID-4934 Project: Teiid Issue Type: Enhancement Components: Server Affects Versions: 9.2.3 Environment: * Wildfly 10 * Teiid Server 9.2.3 Reporter: Pedro Inácio Assignee: Steven Hawkins Fix For: 10.x It should be possible to import a model via "_import-vdb_" that conflicts with other models also imported via "_import-vdb_" if the conflicting model has the same version. This will allow greater model reuse, and not to have duplicated model definitions in multiple vdbs. Example: VDB 1: <code> <vdb name="OneVDB" version="1"> <description>One VDB</description> <import-vdb name=ConflictingVDB" version="1"/> <import-vdb name="OtherVDB" version="1"/> </code> VDB 2: <code> <vdb name="TwoVDB" version="1"> <description>TwoVDB</description> <import-vdb name=ConflictingVDB" version="1"/> <import-vdb name="YetOtherVDB" version="1"/> </code> VDB 3: <code> <vdb name="ThirdVDB" version="1"> <description>Third VDB</description> <import-vdb name=OneVDB" version="1"/> <import-vdb name="TwoVDB" version="1"/> </code> Currently we cannot use the ThirdVDB as is, since there is a conflicting VDB (ConflictingVDB) defined in VDBS One and Two. Since both are using the same version, it should be possible to ignore the conflict (via a property for example).
