If you could change anything about the data tier in OFBiz (basically the Entity Engine), what would you change?
All comments are welcome. If there is another tool you'd like to see used instead of the Entity Engine, please describe what you like about it (like "I want to have an Java class for each table in my database") instead of just mentioning the tool (like "let's use Hibernate!"). Why am I asking? This topic comes up every once in a while, and it's true that many suggestions never get enough support to actually happen (or on further research it is decided that the idea is not tenable), but brainstorming about them to get ideas in the open is still a great thing. The history of OFBiz is full of things like this where users and more casual contributors had ideas and saw possibilities that others, even more involved contributors, totally missed or never looked at that way. What I think would be fun, and ultimately useful too, is to keep this mostly to brainstorming and not do too much comparing of ideas. BTW, if you want to brainstorm about another tier (ie the Logic or UI tiers) please use the other threads on those. If you'd like to discuss things that aren't specific to a tier look for the "General" thread. -David
