[Hibernate] Enhancements to the Hibernate Xdoclet subtasks

From: Joel Rosi-S. <Joe...@Et...> - 2002-11-27 11:22:33

I started this conversation on the Hibernate forum. For the benefit of 
those who did not read that thread ("Zen of mapping strategies & 
generation tools", it was lengthy to say the least;-) I will briefly 
recap the part that is relevant here.

 I am going to be using Hibernate in a couple of projects and would 
prefer to maintain the mapping definitions as automatically as possible. 
I have not yet chosen the exact mapping strategy I will employ and 
Gavins comment was that possibly I would be best off with a 
"<joined-subclass> functionality (table-per-subclass)" strategy. In any 
case, for all of options I am considering, the current Xdoclet is 
insufficient to handle that task.

 I have therefore volunteered to take on doing some extension work to 
the hibernate subtask. Gavin has expressed willingness to guide the 
effort, which is essential as I do not have the experience with 
hibernate to really understand what is wanted and needed. It would also 
be very helpful if I had someone who has prior XDoclet development 
experience to support me when I need some questions answered in that arena.

 I have set aside a few days to accomplish this. So, while my time is 
limited, I am very open to suggestions from the community as to what is 
wanted. I will do as much as is possible within my initial time constraints.

 So the first task at hand is to specify the functionality. Let the 
games begin...

Firstly and most importantly, the XDoclet module needs to be updated to
support the new DTD (hibernate-mapping-1.1.dtd). The biggest and most
important change in this is support for the <joined-subclass> mapping style.
However there are also a couple of smaller changes (eg.
<composite-id><property> was changed to <composite-id><key-property>,
<composite-id><key-many-to-one> ). I don't expect it would be very difficult
to extrapolate these changes from the current functionality.
<joined-subclass> is substantially similar to <subclass>, with the exception
that it has the required <key> subelement.

I'll take a look at this today.

Is it possible to get me commit access to the Tools module, that would 
be a lot easier than having to produce patches.

If this is not a problem, then I would also like an okay to add Eclipse 
project support. It only adds two files, .classpath and .project, and 
these are not intrusive to anyone who is not using Eclipse. In fact if 
you wanted to give me commit on all of the modules, I would be happy to 
set up and maintain Eclipse project support across the board. For people 
using Eclispe this makes it *much* easier to pull code out of cvs and be 
up and running immediately.

I'm not too keen on adding .project + .classpath - my .classpath has
hardcoded pathnames to various JDBC drivers and it would be a real hassle to
not accidently check those in each time. (hibernate.properties is bad
enough; up to version 1.91 already.) Anyway, I use Eclipse very smoothly +
successfully without them there. Note that I use cygwin for CVS access
because I just hate the eclipse CVS client.

[Hibernate] Which reference manual is most up to date?

From: Joel Rosi-S. <Joe...@Et...> - 2002-11-28 11:37:34

To make sure that I understand what the current mapping defintions are I 
am about to reread the "Hibernate Reference Documentation". It is rather 
unclear as to which version represents the gospel. I printed the PDF the 
1.2 release about a week ago and it had 88 pages. When I look at the PDF 
on the web today it has 69 pages. The PDF in cvs acrobat complains that 
it is damaged.  This leaves me wondering which documentation I should be 
referencing for the Xdoclet work. Can I trust any of the PDF's or should 
I fall back to the HTML.

As a suggestion it may be useful to date and version the documentation.

And know when we are on an related subject :)

Could we soon be introducing a src directory instead of having cirrus in the
root of the project ?
It would make life much easier for me and my eclipse :)

Yeah sure. I will make a support request to SourceForge staff....

Gavin,

Did anything ever happen concerning moving the source into an src directory
?

Actually the Hibernate XDoclet module has moved under the umbrella of 
the XDocklet project proper.  Until the next XDoclet release, it is only 
available by downloading all of XDockle from cvs on Source Forge and 
building it. I suppose that if that was really inconvenient, one could 
always download the one from the Hibernate Tools cvs tree, but that no 
longer has the latest modifications.
