I've read some earlier threads on Cayenne 3.0, and have a few questions:- Is Cayenne 3.0 Classic significantly different from Cayenne 2.x?
There are some significant new features. Here is the definitive list:https://issues.apache.org/cayenne/secure/IssueNavigator.jspa? pid=10000&resolution=1&fixfor=10091
And another list here with some highlights: http://cwiki.apache.org/CAY/release-30-new-features.htmlI have been using 3.0 in production for over 6 months now. It is very stable and some of its features are things which have been very important to us.
- Could JPA modelling tools (e.g. Eclipse Dali, etc.) be used in place of Cayenne Modeller?
I don't believe so, but I'm not familiar with Dali. The Cayenne modeller is one of the key advantages to Cayenne. Ultimately you'd need to produce cayenne.xml for Cayenne to function.
- Are there Cayenne functionalities available to Classic, but not JPA version?
Absolutely. JPA is an API which forms only a subset of the full capabilities of Cayenne.
Also, I posted a thread last July concerning multiple models in one application: http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/cayenne-dev/200607.mbox/% [EMAIL PROTECTED]Two questions on this: - Curious if Cayenne 3 would support this?- If not, would the custom solution described still apply to Cayenne 3?
This has been discussed in the last day on the user list. Look for a message with the subject "Loading multiple cayenne.xml". These questions about the use of Cayenne are probably more appropriate on that list.
