but if it is in a default group then do I need to create an enity-group.xml
file? Since all the groups within the default group do not have an
entity-group.xml file I assumed creating a datasource within a default group
does not require an entity-group.xml file. There isnt one for locaderby
datasource which is a default one. But I could be wrong
While creating the enitygroup file what name do I need to give to Entity
atritbute of entity-group? Random or schema name? Does each of this entity
name map to a specific table or just the whole DB?
<entitygroup xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance";
xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="http://ofbiz.apache.org/dtds/entitygroup.xsd";>
<entity-group group="org.ofbiz" entity="IS THIS A RANDOM NAME??"/>
<entity-group group="org.ofbiz" entity="HOW MANY ENTITIES DO I NEED TO
HAVE??ONE per Datasource or ONE Per Schema???"/>
</entitygroup>
