I'm afraid there is no way to define a default value for an association.

You set it mandatory,it means "if you add this apect ,you must provide association". you can't go against it ,or the mandatory is meaningless.

If you just want to make it easier to add the aspect from share ,you can customize share or modify you association define

There should be solution for this.By writing ftl or something else.Are you sure about this,that we cant have default value for association?

kaynezhang — Wed, 28 May 2014 16:05:33 GMT

I mean there is no way to specify default value for association in model definition level.
Of course you can customize service or UI and specify a value for an association
