tools for coding mappings
I currently handcode my repository_user.xml file, and am having
enormous difficulties. I find it is incredibly easy to make typos
and many of these typos are incredibly difficult to find.
There has got to be a better way. What are you guys using
for this purpose? Are there any good tools out there for
writing xml files? And does anybody have a good method
for making sure that the repository_user names, Java field names,
and database field names all match up.
I have spent all day on these sorts of bugs, with several
fairly large tables. I am ripping my hair out!'

OJB Console is initially aimed to just be a tool modifying the
repository.xml files, similar to the way Struts Console takes care of
the struts-config.xml files. It's very possible that other
functionality could be added on once the "core" is in place.

Wow!!
OJB Console?
That will be really helpful.
Will it support the auto-generation of SQL DDL and reverse engineering
process for java beans and repository file(s) generation?
I think I've seen your Struts console in Programming Jakarta Struts,
O'Reilly book. Very helpful and efficient :)

Hi Bonnie,
I'm working on a tool called OJB Console that will take much of the
hassle out of working with the repository.xml files. If you'd like to
see an idea of how it works you can check out the Struts Console tool I
built for Struts.

I'm still a week or 2 out on getting my OJB tool out, but it's on the
way.
