Re generics: that's a missing feature. The code generator predates Java 5. Probablyyou can use the JavaVersions class to decide whether to do generics or not. Re interface changes: enhance away! -Patrick On 5/23/07, Gokhan Ergul <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: Patrick Linskey wrote: >> Would you g

IMO, mailing list is probably good for discussing strategies and techniques. JIRA reports are good for providing implementation summaries and proposed patches. On May 16, 2007, at 4:58 PM, Gokhan Ergul wrote: Marc, Patrick, What would be the correct medium to discuss various design/

Also, FWIW, the BEA Workshop tool (eclipse-based) will reverse-generate classes from a database as well, and supports putting the metadata into annotations. -Patrick On 5/16/07, Marc Prud'hommeaux <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: That is correct: the reversemappingtool only currently supports genera

That's what I've found too. The reversemapping tool will create new java files based on the database tables, and provide an orm.xml file. No annotations though. You can always add them based on the generated orm.xml file although that might be easier said than done if you have a lot of entities.

I am not sure that it will annotate your exiting code but (I think) it will make an external mapping file for you or generate the annotated classes from the ground up. Check out the MappingTool class/docs -Original Message- From: linda rae [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: May 16, 2007 8:58
