Hi Edwin,

depending on your database you might need a few manual modifications.

In my case with Oracle 9i and Torque 3.1 I encountered the following problems yesterday

+) the default value for TIMESTAMP (=SYSDATE) confuses Torque
+) with BLOB no datatype is inserted which results in compile errors
+) all my NUMBERs get mapped to Decimal even if INTEGER is appropriate
+) you should add the database name to the <database> element in resulting XML schema 
file

I consider writing a tiny XSLT to fix the thingies by using the ANT xsl task ... in 
this case I have complete round-trip engineering

Cheers,

Siegfried Goeschl

Hi,

try setting up your Torque project as described in 
the user guide. (especially edit torque.properties to 
reflect your db-setting)

then run the build-torque.xml with ant using the task "jdbc" , 
that connects to your db and generates and xxx-schema.xml

On my machine it took a while for the task to complete (~10-15 min), 
but it was running stable...


HTH,

Hi,

Does anyone know whether torque can create the XML database schema file
"myproject-schema.xml" from an existing Database schema.
If this question has been asked before can you direct me to the answer
in torque's mail archive.

Thanks.
