Ronald,

have a look at ...

http://castor.codehaus.org/javadoc/org/exolab/castor/tools/MappingTool.html

to get an idea what this tool offers in terms of API.

Regards
Werner

PS If that's not sufficient to get you going, please don't hesitate to come back with questions.

Werner,

Thanks for that...the only piece I seem to be misssing is where is this Mapping tool you speak of to generate the initial mapping files from the Domain Objects?

Thanks,

Ron

    Hi Ronald,

    there's no tool that helps you to create the desired results in one go.
    But you could

    a) create Java domain classes (without descriptors) from your XML schema
    using the XML code generator
    b) use the mapping tool to create a mapping file from the Java classes
    c) enrich this mapping file with information specific to JDO
    d) use the DDL generator to create DDL files from the mapping(s).

    Regards
    Werner

    PS A few months ago I was pondering the idea of allowing folks to use
    <xsd:appInfo> elements to define persistence related information within
    an XML schema, so that JDO descriptors could be generated directly.
    Anybody wishing to join me on this idea, feel free .. ;-).
