Did you find information on quick start you needed which wasn't available from the present getting started tutorial?

Thank you for the answers.
I've seen a recent post on this argument in the Mail archives
(post:"Installation of OJB").
OJB is a very flexyble framework, but for a newbie this choice shoud be imbaracing.
OJB should provide a "Default" and documented solution and a complex or "non
Default" implementation at user choice.
What do you think?
While I'm searching for information, I've noted a problem (?) in the documentation:
The "Getting Started" area is logically related to "Quick start"
(http://db.apache.org/ojb/quickstart.html) but does not point to it. The "Quick
start" area seems unreachable, I don't know how to get there from home page.
Thank you
Unfortunately I don't think there is one. I hit this issue when I started with ojb.
There's a strong case both for and against having an ant task that just
creates the OJB system table schemas.
On the "for" side it would make it easy to dump the basic schemas you may into your database without all the test tables you currently get.
On the against side:
You don't always need OJB system tables. If you setup your primary key
generation (auto-increment) to use database sequences, then (as far as I
know) you only need OJB system tables for certain features such as the
ODMG api.
Because everyone's usage of these tables is different, what system
tables would you include?
Personally, I'd like to see an ant task that generates all the OJB
system tables you may need and then you could just choose to not use
them later once you've started to understand what's going on. That
approach seems to provide the easiest learning curve for somebody new to
OJB.
So to answer your question what I use is: 1) database sequences for auto-increment http://db.apache.org/ojb/howto-use-db-sequences.html
2) No OJB system tables at all.

Hello, what is the ant task to run to create only OJB system table (OJB_*) with OJB RC5? I've run ojb-blank task but has created a lot of table.
thanks
