Automatic Mapping Tool

[Ju...@Bertelsmann.de]

Hello,

I have my application already running and I want to change the persistence
to the OJB ODMG API. I have some classes (Value Objects) that I want to
persist.
 
I have a ServerVO which holds some generic attributes and an attribute of
the type ModulesVO. This ModulesVO contains a List of ModuleVO (be aware of
the s) that contain some generic attributes. That's all. Now what I would
like to have is a tool that automatically generates the repository_user.xml
for me out of my classes. Is there a tool available? Because in the
documentation I found only instructions how to manually create this file.

I heard that James Holmes is working on a OJB Console but as I see he is not
finished with this.

Thanks, Julia.

Hi Julia,

There is an XDoclet module for OJB. It allows to take your tagged Java 
source code and will generate the repsotory_user.xml and a Torque DDL 
script for you.

It will be part of the official XDoclet distribution soon. For the time 
being it is available here:
http://cvs.apache.org/viewcvs/db-ojb/contrib/xdoclet-ojb-module.zip

beste Gruesse aus Essen,
Thomas
