Mendix 9 compatible<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
We are Mendix 9 compatible\ud83c\udf89. For the early adopters out there, #gomakeit, we got your back.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cThey are more like guidelines than actual rules.\u201d<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n\nNew<\/h4>\n\n\n\n- We added the rule: Access rules with an Xpath constrain should only use read or none access.<\/em> An access rule that uses an XPath constraint should only refer to attributes and associations with Read<\/em> or None<\/em> access. If the XPath uses attributes or associations with\u00a0Read, Write\u00a0<\/em>access, it may cause a security breach.\u00a0<\/li>
- We added the rule: Minimize the use of self-relations<\/em>. Self-relations are harder to understand in the domain model and especially in XPath queries. Mendix even introduced a reversed() function to determine the direction of the XPath association to be used in a self-relation. The advice is to minimize the use. And if self relations are needed, document them well, test them well and use the allow list for the violation.<\/li>
- We added the rule: Retrieve by association from persistent to non-persistent is not advised<\/em>. Non-persistent objects can be created in microflows and exist during execution in a Mendix runtime. The browser maintains a cache of non-persistent objects. However, this browser cache is cleared when the object is no longer needed. This can be on closing a page or after some time or switching a row in a grid. When the microflow retrieves the persistent entity from the database, the association from the non-persistent entity is not linked to this copy.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
Improved<\/h4>\n\n\n\n- We improved the rule: Entity access default rights for new members should be None or Read<\/em>. The rule no longer generates duplicate violations\u2014this rule checks per user role since you might want to exclude specific user roles. Consequently, the rule also checks per module role since user roles can have multiple module roles. The checks are now done, and if numerous user roles or module roles match the reason text is extended:<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n

We made it easier for you to go to the documentation. When you hover over a rule, a documentation icon appears that brings you to the rule documentation. <\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n
