I narrowed down the areas we need to address before alpha. That is what
myself Misha and Nikhil are working on:
- Cayenne Modeler tool. At least datamap support without reverse
engineering is needed.
- Java class generation.
- DataObjects and DataContexts
- Support for different database vendor "dialects" of JDBC SQL syntax and
data types. At least support in the architecture. Concrete implementations
for "100% JDBC", Oracle, Sybase.
- Stored Procedure support in Queries package.
- (time allowing) extending expression language (unions, group by's,
advanced ObjAttribute mappings, etc.)
Misha,
1. Can we update data map saving procedure to avoid referencing
http://objectstyle.org/datamap.dtd in all saved models? One suggested way
of doing it and still keeping the DTD, is including DTD in cayenne.jar, and
then using Cayenne Modeler tool to copy it in the same directory where the
map is stored. Then a relative URL can be used (can those be used in
<!DOCTYPE...?)
2. I may postpone the changes to ObjAttribute that I was talking about, so
that I can concentrate on higher priority tasks. I guess you can proceed
without paying attention to that till I have more time and do it right.
This is a power feature so even if this doesn't make it to alpha, so be it.
