The primary problem with the foreignkeys is that because of circular dependencies between the tables, there may not be a way to order the table that actually works when using inline foreignkeys (i.e. the foreignkeys embedded in the tables). commons-sql circumvents this by splitting this into two steps using alter table statements to add the foreignkeys to the then already existing tables. > Is there any documentation/ usage guidelines > available for integrating commons-sql with OJB ?

You only need to use the one Ant task that is described on the commons-sql website, with the schema that the XDoclet module generated. An example usage is in the task itself, in the class comment: http://svn.apache.org/viewcvs.cgi/jakarta/commons/sandbox/sql/trunk/src/java/org/apache/commons/sql/task/DDLTask.java?view=markup Tom --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
