Jacques Le Roux closed OFBIZ-4153.
----------------------------------
Resolution: Abandoned
Atlassian did that for Jira, seems to work well but not cheap
> Make entity engine a standalone database access tool/API

> Key: OFBIZ-4153
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-4153
> Project: OFBiz
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: framework
> Reporter: Raj Saini
> Assignee: Adam Heath
> Priority: Minor
>
> From the user mailing list:
> I was picturing the entity engine as a lower level artifact - like a jar
> file. I don't have all of the details worked out yet, but what I picture is
> this:
> 1. An application needs a database-agnostic data store.
> 2. The application accesses the data store though the entity engine API/ jar
> library.
> Ofbiz has a very convenient way of defining databases, tables, and views as
> XML files. Plus, it has the ability to create/modify table/index structures
> during start-up. I believe that would be a very handy tool for anyone wanting
> to create any application that requires data storage.
> Wrapping the entity engine jar file in an OSGI bundle would be trivial.
> If anyone is interested in exploring this further, then they should create a
> Jira issue and we can take it from there.
