Imagine you have the following items in Database 1:
- Entity 1
-- Entity 1.1
-- Entity 1.2
--- Entity 1.2.1
--- Entity 1.2.2
If I choose to ‘convert’ Entity 1.2 from db 1 to db 2 are you expecting that it will automatically also convert Entity 1, Entity 1.2.1 and Entity 1.2.2 as well?
What about Entity 1.1 ?
It is unlikely that the simple ‘convert’ function (which basically operates on a single entity) will ever cover a complex case with self-relations.
I think what you might be looking for is something like a cross-database ‘deep copy’, followed by deletion of the original tree.
