[Opensource] Cascading Deletes

[Malcolm Wise]

Hi,

I have a DBObject for which I've overridden the checkAllReferredToBy()
method to trap any deletes of rows with foreign key references and return a
meaningful message to the user.  This DBObject itself has a 'parent'
DBObject, and I've set up the relationship using addDetail().  When I
attempt to delete a 'parent' row I was expecting each detail's
checkAllReferredToBy() method to be called, but I notice that when doing
cascading deletes the deleteAll() method is used which bypasses this check.
Am I missing something obvious?
I'm using Expresso 5.01.

Cheers
