Brian thanks for your response, I'm glad things are OK because I've been
touting OJB as the best game in town, and I still think it is.
Thank you!
What is OTM?
The OTM is the Object Transaction Manager. It is an object-space transaction implementation analogous to the one implemented in the ODMG api, but factored out in order to be available to other layers built on it (such as the JDO, and post 1.0 the ODMG). It is implemented on top of the PB api. It isn't being advertised in the 1.0 branch very much as it is the least mature (though one of the nicest to use) API in OJB.
Where can I get access to a lit of tools for OJB?
A good overview is available at http://db.apache.org/ojb/howto-build-mappings.html
As the excellent Druid tool isn't listed there, it is available at http://druid.sf.net and the ojb module for it is distributed with it.
Has the reverse DB issue been resolved since I last worked on OJB? I am
still interested in setting up my DB, setup all foreign keys and
indexes, and have reverse DB pull all that info into a nice clean XML
doc. Is this working now, or are we still waiting for this to happen?
I don't use reversedb myself so cannto say with sure knowledge, but there was a big flurry of activity with it several months ago so I suspect it has. Is an easy thing to test. If it *hasn't* I have used Druid to generate Java, .jdo metadata, and the ojb repository just this week and it worked fine.
The xdoclet module in the contrib directory is also excellent (I use it).
Really sorry if I;m repeating previously asked questions, I'll do my best to bring things back up to speed on my end.
No problem, glad to help out!
