"Catalog" and "schema" are interpreted by Cayenne the way JDBC does
it, i.e. as an abstracted concept of a DB namespace. Each individual
DB may have different terms for them (or may not even support either
of them at all).
"Catalog" has really no significance to Cayenne, so it can be deleted
safely from the mapping. "Schema" is a different beast (a different
level of namcespacipng), and may be important in some cases. Cayenne
will prefix all table names with schema in the queries. E.g.: "select
* from myschema.mytable". So just changing catalog to schema is
probably not what you want.
If no explicit schema is specified, and you application works, I guess
just keep it this way.

Hi,
I am looking at my mapping file which was initially developed with
3.0M4. I am seeing some dbentity elements having an attribute
'catalog'. Can I remove them by hand and is this attribute now
replaced with 'schema'? I am using M5, Cayenne, not the BMW :-)
Thanks,
Borut
