Listing Attributes

Is there a way I can get a List of the attributes for a given
DBEntity?  For instance, I have a customer.  I want an iteratable list
of fields I can query on.  How can I do that?

If you want to run the DbAttribute's list of your DbEntity instance, with
cayenne 3.0M3:

http://cayenne.apache.org/doc/api/org/apache/cayenne/map/DbEntity.html#getAttributes()

If you want to run the ObjAttribute's list for the ObjEntity associated to
you DbEntity, I do not know a direct way. Use an EntityResolver instance.
Anyway, this class will help you a lot:
