Robert Zeigler commented on CAY-56:
-----------------------------------
4 is a definite must, imo.
It would be /so/ nice if we could have specialized forms of comments, or some
way of describing /how/ to apply them (eg: javadocs, annotations, etc.), but,
maybe that's too much to ask. :)
Although.... we could do somthing as simple as: comments on db entitites are
applied to the db; comments on obj entities are applied to the java class. At
least for the java class, comments could be output raw. So I could add a
comment that looks like:
@DefaultOrder({"a","b","c"})
to the obj entity and that would be applied directly to the java class. Just a
thought; then the comments are very generic, from cayenne's perspective, but
still useful directly by, eg, java.
> Comments for entities, attributes and relationships
