Resolution: Fixed
> Modeler: Rework DbEntity PK generation UI to match the XML model
> ----------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: CAY-3004
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CAY-3004
> Project: Cayenne
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Reporter: Andrus Adamchik
> Assignee: Andrus Adamchik
> Priority: Minor
> Fix For: 5.0-M4
>
>
> The Modeler currently presents PK generation as a single 3-way "PK Strategy"
> combo box
> (Cayenne-Generated (Default) / Database-Generated / Custom Sequence) on the
> DbEntity tab. That grouping is an invention of the UI and does not match the
> map XML, where the two concepts are independent and live on different
> elements:
> - db-entity/db-key-generator — an optional child element
> (DbEntity.primaryKeyGenerator,
> a DbKeyGenerator with type/name/cache size). Absent = default. Only flavor
> is a custom sequence
> - db-attribute/@isGenerated — a boolean flag on one column
> (DbAttribute.generated),
> i.e. an auto-increment / identity column.
> Let's build the UI around the actual structure - "Auto-Increment" should
> become a DbAttribute editor column (only available to PKs), and
> DbEntity-level selector only available to configure custom sequences.
