Hi, in case you don't know about it, there is a very nice open source
tool that generates interactive schema documentation including tables,
columns, indexes, ER diagrams and more. It is java based, and it is
called schemaSpy.

* http://schemaspy.sourceforge.net/

I tested it with MaxDB, with some help of the author, and managed to
produce documentation for my MaxDB schemas, but I observed a problem
of this tool when identifiyng primary keys with MaxDB, so I patched
the code and it solved the problem.

The patched JAR (as well as the source) is available for anyone
interested, just send me an email. I posted the patch to the project's
list, but I am not sure when it will be accepted, it is very simple,
just a couple of lines.

Make sure you add comments to your schema objects, this tool will take
advantage of that to create rich documentation.

Regards,
Martin
