Subject: New auto-xxx handling 
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii; format=flowed
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit

Hi all,

I checked in the new auto-update/-delete stuff. This should be 100% 
backward compatible with the old stuff.

auto-update/-delete now support the following values
none, link, object, false, true

BrokerHelper has new methods used to handle the new 'none' setting. 
These methods allow to assign/remove the FK in the referenced objects.

public void link(Object obj, boolean insert)
public boolean link(Object obj, String attributeName, boolean insert)
public void unlink(Object obj)
public boolean unlink(Object obj, String attributeName)

I added new test cases to check the new settings:
...broker.CollectionTest2
...broker.M2NTest
It is not possible to test all combinations of auto-xxx settings. If you 
miss some, please enhance these new tests. We need an similar test for 
1:1 relations too.

More details can be found in the "auto-xxx setting (PART II)" thread on 
dev-list and in near future in documentation (will start with this work 
today).

All test pass, but please review and check my made changes (maybe with 
your local tests).

regards,
Armin
