Can't put more data into second level embedded map

[boro...@gmail.com]

Hello,

I'm sure I'm missing something, but I just can't figure it out from the online docs. I have a Class "Account", inside it has Embedded class "AccountSettings", which has another embeddedmap  "classTemplate". I'm trying to add values to the embedded map "classTemplate", but the "put" method fails on me. Please see below:

// Account

create class Account extends V

create property Account.settings EMBEDDED AccountSettings

// Account Settings

create class AccountSettings extends V

create property AccountSettings.classTemplate EMBEDDEDMAP String

I created a record in the Account class, then I did the following:

// Simply initialized "settings" in the Account to an AccountSettings class

update Account set settings = {"@type":"d", "@class":"AccountSettings"} where @rid = #25:0

// add class template

update #25:0 set settings.classTemplate = {'template1':'aaa'}   << this one works to initially create the map

update #25:0 put settings.classTemplate = 'template2', 'bbb'    << this one fails!

Error: com.orientechnologies.orient.core.sql.OCommandSQLParsingException: Error parsing query:

update #25:0 put settings.classTemplate = 'template2', 'bbb'

Is there a different/better way to put map elements into the embedded map when it is part of another embedded class? 

p.s. I'm running orientdb 2.2.10

seems like a bug to me

Hi,

It seems there is a bug in the parser, but to be honest I really hate that syntax, it's not clear, not elegant and IMHO also misleading.

You can try this:

update #25:0 set settings.classTemplate.template2 = 'bbb'

it has the exact same semantics, but it's clear and straight forward.

Thanks

Luigi

You're right, it works and I'll use it that way for now. However, should I submit it as a bug orientDB team or is it something you working on to change in 3.0?

Hi,

please submit it as a bug, 2.2.x is latest stable branch and it's a supported feature, so it's supposed to be fixed.

In 3.0 probably it will be deprecated

Thanks

Luigi
