Hi all: I have a couple questions about Torque, specifically the schema.xml file. I have an existing Oracle schema that I will be using for a new Turbine web-app. There is a load of exisiting legacy code using the database, so making changes to the schema is problematic.
I am attempting to use the latest stable version of Torque (stand-alone or TDK) to generate my BaseObjects & Peers but am having quite a time with the exisiting schema. I have a couple of questions that hopefully one or more of you can answer which will help me solve my problems. 1) Since I have a pre-existing database, does adding <index> and <unique> tags generate anything special in the generated java base/peer code? I don't care about the DDL generated, since I won't be using it. 2) What does the <foreign key> tag buy me in the generated java code? When I look at the classes that compile (not all do), it appears as if they add programmatic ref-int. Is that basically right? In a similar vein, if I already have ref-int with cascading updates/delete constraints in my database, do I need the foreign_key overhead in my code? Any help would be appreciated, and thanks in advance. Steve S. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
