Is there a way to generate a default DBML that contains all the data and
then edit it, or do I have to create it from scratch? When I do
"/dbml=OGoDB.dbml" the DBML file is *very* sparse and contains only
references to tables (no references to fields), like:
<Table Name="public.article" Member="Article">
<Type Name="Article" />
</Table>
But if I generate classes they do domain setter/getters for all the
fields.
The alias method (like pgsqlFieldRenames.xml) seems to work for both
fields and tables, so that may be sufficient; just seems like DBML is
the richer solution.
