Hi Florian, hi all,

I just completed the ojb.broker.metadata.RepositoryPersistor and checked it
into CVS.
This class allow to read DescriptorRepository Objects from XML files AND to
write them back into xml Files.

Benefits:
- information on XML grammar is kept in single point.
- changing the repository.dtd will be much simpler.
- writing mapping tools will be much simpler now, as all mapping related
tools (as your reversedb) work directly on DescriptorRepository objects.

Florian, there is now no more need to have your tool directly generate XML
files! You can start to refactor you reversedb tool to use the persistor.

cu,

Thomas
