    Borut Bolčina commented on CAY-1029:
    ------------------------------------

    Cayenne modeler is a great tool, but large models (or even not so large) a best modeled with tools like Visual Paradigm. I use VP for other purposes also, but primarily for designing the model and creating the schema/database.

    Like Robert said, reverse engineering the database is a repeating task, especially in the earlier stages of the design. Having a maven plugin to generate mapping file without entering another application is a simple time optimization for my/our dev process.

    > 1. maven2-cgen
    > 2. maven2-cdbgen
    > 3. maven2-cdeploy
    > 4. maven2-cdataport
    > it would be greate if we had something like
    > 5. maven2-creverse
    > This plugin would reverse engineer the given database and create a mapping file. I guess all the classes exist in the modeler, so it would not be too hard to create a mojo.
    > What do you think?
