PLM — How to satisfy relationship multiplicities of '1..*' in query results?

  • Key: PLM-27
  • Legacy Issue Number: 7883
  • Status: closed  
  • Source: Anonymous
  • Summary:

    For the compositions 'Item_version' and 'Document_version'
    we have set xs:nillable='true' to satisfy the multipliciy
    constraint '1..*' with nil objects (if required) .

    The problem appears in other locations in the informational XML Schema too.
    There are many locations in the informational XML Schema with relationships
    with the multiplicity '1..*'.
    If such a relationship is traversed inside the evaluation of a query in inverse direction
    the source objekct of the traversion can be used to satisfy the multiplicity constraint
    in the result.
    But which objects should be used in other cases to satisfy the multiplicity?

    If we have a Work_order_query
    and this query selects a Work_order object.
    Which activity objects should be added to the result
    to satisfy the multiplicity of the Is_controlling association
    of the Work_order object:
    all, one arbitrary or one nil activity object?

    Here is the hopefully complete list of the concerned relationships:
    (Referenced_type Referencing_type.Relationship)

    Compositions
    Translation Translations.Translation
    Item_version Item.Item_version
    Document_version Document.Document_version
    Person_in_organization Person.Person_in_organization

    Associations
    Accuracy_select Accuracy.Is_defined_for
    Activity Work_order.Is_controlling
    Approval_element_select Approval.Is_applied_to
    Date_and_person_organization Work_request.Notified_person
    Date_time_person_organization_element_select
    Date_and_person_assignment.Is_applied_to
    Date_time_person_organization_element_select
    Date_time_assignment.Is_applied_to
    Date_time_person_organization_element_select
    Person_organization_assignment.Is_applied_to
    Document Specific_document_classification.Associated_document
    Final_definition_select Final_solution.Final_specification

    Item_property_select Material.Described_element
    Property_value Value_list.Values
