Thanks guys for the lively interaction;
Wouter -- Fixing a non-working part in a car so that the car as a whole starts working again is simply referred to as fixing the car. Also, there is no such thing as fixing a car independent of fixing its parts; to fix a car IS-EQUAL-TO fixing the non-working parts. In fact, some parts even if they are broken you can still accomplish the necessary and required condition of the existance of the car, for example, a broken radio or cd-player in the car doesn't stop you from driving and using the car to accomplish its purpose as a transportation vehicle. In AndroMDA there is probably something like an un-essential part like that of a radio or a CD-player, but hibernate or Maven are essential parts without which the tool will not be able to fullfill its promise (true for Hibernate if hiberante is considered a required persistance layer otherwise one can swap a different persistance layer and then Hibernate won't be a necessary part, see below my response to Chad). Chad -- when you say: "Actually that's not true: If Hibernate was broken, we could generate for another persistence tier..." Well this doesn't change the fact I can still say and it would be true that "AndroMDA stopped working --again as a whole-- when I used Hibernate as its persistence tier." Also, using our car analogy it is like exchanging the broken part with a new part rather than fixing it. The fact again still that if I continue to use the old part without fixing it, I am still unable to use car. BTW, I think the problem is not Hibernate per say, it is rather (probably) something else, MAY BE the maven automation or hibernate cartridge rapper for Hibernate itself so that no one say I am talking about Hibernate itself being the issue. In fact I ran the same SchemaExport (as I stated earlier) in hibernate and it worked.
