Thanks for the advice, Randy. I tried changing the steps in EOModeler, and continued to test, but it didn't make a lot of difference that I could tell.

What seems to have helped most is downgrading my Oracle jdbc driver to an older version that most closely matches the database I'm working against; I guess the drivers are not fully backwards-compatible.

Try skipping different steps; avoid primary keys, ignore relationships, ignore stored procedures. Just getting the basics always goes really quickly.

You may have already tried this, but seems like its worth a shot.

Hi y'all -

I am trying to reverse engineer tables from a client's Oracle database. I have tried both EntityModeler (build 4118) and EOModeler, and from two different Tiger machines - all with similar results; namely that I can connect to the database, see and select the tables i want to reverse engineer, and then the modeler app becomes unresponsive. In some of my tests, EntityModeler did eventually return to life, and present me with a functional model that I was able to use to pull data - but only after being locked up for 20 minutes or more. In other cases, I forced quit the apps (after more than an hour, in some cases) with no results.

Reverse engineering MySQL tables works fine for me (and pretty much instantaneously), and the Oracle tables I've been testing against are not large - less than a dozen fields, a few tens or hundreds of records, if that matters. However, I'd really like to get this working, as there are some very large tables I'd like to be able to build models of, and doing it by hand would be a major pain.

Has anyone else seen this - or can even offer any pointers on what might be going wrong?

Thanks,

Simon
