ORDS can't handle self-referencing tables #498

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. It's not uncommon for a field in table to reference another record in the 
same table, for instance in a 'people' table, there might be the field 
'father', where one person's father is another individual in the same table.
2. At present though, if you define such a table in the schema designer and try 
to save it, you get the following error:

"There has been a problem with the schema you are trying to save. The save 
operation has therefore not happened.
Unable to create table definitions"

3.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
It's only a matter of time before somebody wants to do this for real, so needs 
to be possible.

Tried with Chrome, Dev 0.10.beta - 3449

n.b. we don't need to get this in place before go live!
