If you are running Abator as an Eclipse plugin, then Abator can do a Java and XML merge. This means that you can add anything you want to the generated classes and XML files - Abator will merge the changes back in if you run Abator again.
If you are running Abator outside of Eclipse, then Abator can only do an XML merge. So anything you add to XML files will be merged in after running Abator again. But you would need to do the Java merge manually. Jeff Butler On 2/5/07, xianwinwin <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
thank you Jeff...I got it and it's working. wonder if I can add my own statements to the auto-generated statements or I should create them in a different file? I'm asking this because I suspect that if I add a new statement it might be deleted if I revise the db table' structure (as in adding another column) thanks Jeff Butler-2 wrote: > > If you're using sequences or identity columns in your database, then use > the <generatedKey> element in your Abator configuration - and then the > insert will return the new key. > > The example class is used for the selectByExample and deleteByExample > methods.
