Dinamically audit properties

[paulofreitas]

Hi!

I would like to know if there is a way to dinamically track/untrack changes to domain's properties. I have to provide a way a user can choose what properteries of a domain class should be audited. So the declarative model of @Audited does not support what I need. Is there a way to change Envers metadata of what is audited and what is not during execution?

Tks in advance!

Should this also include schema creation? That is, what audit tables are created?

There's no OOTB way to do this, but it should be easy to tweak the Envers code a bit to make the audit metadata discovery pluggable.

Hi Adam,

About the schema creation, I think it should create an audit table contaning all fields (audited or not) of the audited entity. This way a field can become audited at runtime with any impact to db schema.

Should I file a feature request?

Tks!

No need. Take a look at the FAQ: https://community.jboss.org/wiki/EnversFAQ
