All of the meta-data is stored in the obj entity (and the dbentity).
So, something like:
obj.getObjEntity().getAttributes(); //return attribute (non-
relationship properties)
obj.getObjEntity().getRelationships();//return relationships (1-1, 1-
many, etc.)
You can get the property names from there. You can also get the
corresponding DbAttribute to determine table and column names, joins,
etc.

I could hack around this limitation by creating a custom superclass
for
my CayenneDataObject instances,
but WHY is there no getPropertyNames method? Is there a way to get
the
names of the properties
which I have not figured out?
