What's the easiest way to locate a map file? The API for loading a map
and working with the object entities is straightforward, but I'm not
sure how to find the map file in the first place. I assume Cayenne
reads it out of cayenne.xml, but I'm not sure how it finds that either.
Also, ObjEntitiy has a default encodeAsXML() already provided. What's
that used for?
Thanks,
Kevin
