Mandatory Association with relaxed mode

As we transition to the new Hyland Community, some post links may be temporarily disrupted as we finalize redirects. We apologize for the inconvenience and are working to resolve this as quickly as possible. Details.

On http://docs.alfresco.com/4.2/concepts/metadata-model-assoc.html it says:

<blockquote>
As with mandatory properties, both enforced and relaxed modes are supported for the target end, allowing control over whether a transaction can commit or not based on missing associations.
</blockquote>

The XML Schema does not have any property to configure relaxed mode for a mandatory assoziation.

What am I missing? Is the documentation wrong in this point?

Enforced and relaxed modes are configured using enforced attribute of mandatory sub element ,it is defined as following in modelschema.xsd

   <xs:complexType name="mandatoryDef" mixed="true">
      <xs:attribute name="enforced" use="optional" type="xs:boolean"/>     
   </xs:complexType>
‍‍‍‍‍

In model definition ,it will be like following

<association name="**:***">
   <source>
      <mandatory>false</mandatory>
      <many>true</many>
   </source>
   <target>
      <class>**:***</class>
      <mandatory enforced="false">true</mandatory>
      <many>false</many>
   </target>
</association>
