That is correct, reversedb generates the descriptor file with a DTD that was used for the 0.8 series of OJB. The DTD has been changed for 0.9, but there is a stylesheet to transform repository.xml. > Am I using an old version of the reverse-db tool? Does a new version > exsist? Yes and no, reversedb is quite old, but there is no newer version. In summer I started with complete redesign of reverse-db, but haven't managed to finish it due to lack of time. I'm currently writing my diploma thesis, so my spare time is quite limited. If you want to contribute to reverse-db2, there is some sourcecode in CVS and somewhat basic functionality is already there, but unfortunately not enough to deprecate reversedb completely. It already contains a bunch of improvements concerning database metadata reverse engineering, it should be faster by magnitudes while being more compatible with RDBMS around. best regards, Florian -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
