Bonnie We have just started using the ojb xdoclet tags (available from CVS) to autogenerate (via ant) our repository.xml and generate sql for creating the database tables. So far we have found it quite useful is preventing the types of bug you describe.
I agree this new XDoclet thingie is really the best way to go if you start with Java code.
The only (very minor) grip we have is that they are not yet part of the xdoclet distribution, so we need to maintain differnet xdoclet jars for different parts of our build cycle.
Thomas Dudziak promised to integrate it into the main xdoclet distro soon.
cheers, Thomas

I currently handcode my repository_user.xml file, and am having enormous difficulties. I find it is incredibly easy to make typos and
many of these typos are incredibly difficult to find. There has got
to be a better way. What are you guys using for this purpose? Are
there any good tools out there for writing xml files? And does
anybody have a good method for making sure that the repository_user
names, Java field names, and database field names all match up. I
have spent all day on these sorts of bugs, with several fairly large
tables. I am ripping my hair out!' Bonnie MacKellar software
