PropertyDefinition :: sensitive - Sensitive property

Properties are marked as sensitive when being part of a key, i.e. when being used as key component in one of the defined keys, which is key in a global index. In ODABA modifications on indexes will lock the index until the transaction is terminated.

Thus, updating sensitive properties in long transactions may cause uncomfortable lock situations. Hence, applications should allowed updating sensitive properties in long transactions.

If the function is not called with a valid property definition it throws an exception.

Return value:  Success ( bool  )

The value is true when the function was executed successfully. Otherwise the value is set to false.
