Delivery 2

It soon became clear that we needed to focus more on making the changes and implementing the features that where requesting/needed by the other groups, than some of the goals we set for this delivery.

Initial goals for this delivery

Hiberante implementation of SemiPermanentDataStore
Add validation support for DataElements
Hibernate support modules

Issues that where resolved

DC-12 - Implementation of the SemiPermanentDataStore interface
DC-13 - Clean up use of the TransactionInterceptor in the beans.xml files
DC-27 - Change names of test classes, some have implementation specific names
DC-28 - Methods for getting all DataElements in DataStore
DC-29 - Add support for grouping of DataElements
DC-30 - Method for retrieving list of LSAs
DC-31 - Methods for retrieving forms
DC-32 - Change method names from orgUnit to organizationUnit
DC-34 - Method for retrieving all Periods

Issues that started in this period but still in progress

DC-10 - Support for multiple organizational structures
DC-20 - Change to Hibernate version 3
DC-21 - Add validation support

Summary

Hibernate implementation of SemiPermanentDataStore is now in place. We have not got any feedback on this implementation yet, so it seems that it's not used by any of the other groups yet.

Adding support for validation was started but is still work in progress. This is a relatively complicated module. We started a discussion on this module, to try to map what is needed. We decided to put the module on hold for a while, since none of the groups seems to need it yet.

Hibernate support modules are in place.

A lot of the groups use the modules in the "core", so most of our time was spent supporting the requests and needs of the other groups.
