[OASIS Issues Tracker <workgroup_mailer@lists.oasis-open.org>]

Ralf Handl updated ODATA-43:
----------------------------

       Proposal: 
Define a Capabilities annotation that expresses this meaning:

<Term Name="OptimisticConcurrencyControl" Type="Capabilites.OptimisticConcurrencyControlType" AppliesTo="EntitySet" />
<ComplexType Name="OptimisticConcurrencyControlType" Nullable="true">
  <Documentation>
    <Summary>If present, the annotated entity set uses optimistic concurrency control</Summary>
    <LongDescription>If the ETag is computed from properties of entities of this set, these are listed in ETagDependsOn</LongDescription>
  </Documentation>
  <Property Name="ETagDependsOn" Type="Collection(Edm.Property" />
</ComplexType>

  was:
Allow ConcurrencyMode="Fixed" for EntityType, EntitySet, and complex properties.

OR

Define a core annotation that expresses this meaning.

    Environment: [Proposed]

> Currently the only way for a server to indicate to its clients that entities of a given type use optimistic concurrency control, and that the client thus has to watch out for ETags in responses and provide appropriate If-Modified headers in requests is to use the ConcurrencyMode="Fixed" facet on simple properties of an entity type.
> If the server 
>  - does not wish to disclose which properties it uses for optimistic concurrency control, or
>  - does not include the concurrency control properties in the entity type, or
>  - includes the properties as part of a complex type
> it has no means to advertise the presence of optimistic concurrency control to the client.
