ITEM_LIST implementation in JAVA_KERNEL

Implementers (archive)

Hi there,

We’ve been building some RM objects and have found that the implementation of ITEM_LIST differs from the spec. In the SPEC ITEM_LIST is composed of ELEMENTs whereas in the implementation it is composed of CLUSTERs.

Some questions:

Why did you decide to implement it this way?
In order to provide more generality should ITEM_LISTs not be composed of abstract ITEMS?
Does this not impose that archetypes containing ITEM_LISTS will have to define clusters and then ELEMENTS?

thank you

ITEM_LIST must only contain elements, Sam

It's based on previous release of the specification and will be updated.
