Just as an info,
I did as you told me Andrus and changed the code and created a new
dataview.xml file (which from now on is the dvmodeler project file)
containing the dataview related stuff, fixed the namespace problem and
dvmodeler now never touches the cayenne files (well reads them of
course). So now I can run them both without interferring with each other
and I can now try out the dvmodeler, dataviews and cayenne independantly.
Yeah, I know it's quick and dirty, but just so I could ge on trying this
a bit further.
dataview.xml:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<configuration>
<cayenne location="cayenne.xml" />
<dataviews>
<dataview name="dataview0" location="dataview0.view.xml" />
</dataviews>
</configuration>
cayenne.xml, *.map.xml and *.driver.xml is never touched.
Cheers,
Tomas
