be prefered way) or from existing POJOs (entities)?

I also fixed the docs for the next release so that the information can also
be found on documentation/orm-reference/defining-the-schema.html
(which is where I'd expect the users to look)

Currently, it is not possible to run the schema generation for specific
tables only.
However, I have fixed the NullPointerException in the trunk (it was thrown
when an unknown datatype was encountered)
So if you want you can check out the current trunk, build and install it
and then try again withj the 4.1-SNAPSHOT maven plugin.

Re: Generating schema.xml
Posted by Mail Membrana <ma...@gmail.com>.
thanks, I found introduction how to generate from jdbc later on
http://db.apache.org/torque/torque-4.0/documentation/orm-reference/running-the-generator.html
Running generator I get
[ERROR]
java.lang.NullPointerException
at org.apache.torque.generator.source.jdbc.JdbcMetadataSource.createRootElement(JdbcMetadataSource.java:215)
at org.apache.torque.generator.source.SourceImpl.getRootElement(SourceImpl.java:48)
at org.apache.torque.generator.control.Controller.processSourceInOutput(Controller.java:256)
...
Changed log level to "debug" made clear that some tables have been
processed, and that error occures for specific table.
Since I do not need all table available in the specified db scheme, I
have a question how to specify a set of tables for which generation
should be done?
Or the generation is done always for whole scheme, that is for all
tables defined in this scheme?

Yes.
For maven, fgenerate the schema from the database using jdbc metadata by:
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.torque</groupId>
<artifactId>torque-maven-plugin</artifactId>
<version>4.0</version>
<executions>
<execution>
<id>generate-schema-from-jdbc</id>
<phase>generate-resources</phase>
<goals>
<goal>generate</goal>
</goals>
<configuration>
<packaging>classpath</packaging>
<configPackage>org.apache.torque.templates.jdbc2schema</configPackage>
<defaultOutputDir>target/generated-schema</defaultOutputDir>
<defaultOutputDirUsage>none</defaultOutputDirUsage>
<loglevel>info</loglevel>
<options>
<torque.jdbc2schema.driver>$
{driver}</torque.jdbc2schema.driver>
<torque.jdbc2schema.url>$
{database.url}</torque.jdbc2schema.url>
<torque.jdbc2schema.user>$
{database.user}</torque.jdbc2schema.user>
<torque.jdbc2schema.password>$
{database.password}</torque.jdbc2schema.password>
</options>
</configuration>
</execution>
</executions>
</plugin>
Note that the generated schema is just a starting point, there is some
information missing from jdbc metadata (e.g. foreign keys, indexes, unique
constraints...)
Hope that helps,
Thomas
