First things first. Great work. this is a very nice tool and it's simplicity is really awesome.
The company where i am doing my internship is using sql2java. Nothing special at first, wasn't it that they want to use ibatis instead of sql2java. So last week i looked into the code and changed some things. what started as simple changing ended up in some major rewriting of certain parts of the code. In the end I had created templates and code to generate iBatis configuration files, Spring files and the needed classes to support all of it.
Now i do have a question/problem. I didn't start from the latest release in the repository. (major mistake imho). Second of all, i would feel sorry if all my effords are thrown away. And last but not least, i was stupid enough not to use maven (haven't used it before, was a bit scared of all the hussle to get it installed and running).
Now is there any way for us to merge my work into the work of sql2java, or is this out of the projects' scope? If it is, is it possible to create a sub-project or anything like it.

How old was the release that you used? I have never heard of iBatis before, it looks interesting. :-)
I am just guessing, but how much can svn merge you version and the latest version when you just do an update? At least, that should make less work and you can manually merge all the problem areas marked by svn.
I don't know about the developers of sql2java, but I would be interested to try your additions.

Thanks for the reply. A lot of things happened. The previous project leaders have put me in as a developer and we decided to put the code into SVN, look at it a bit more, and trying to release it as an upcoming version. The project has been completely rewritten, but the concepts are still the same. We're still using templates and still using database metadata to generate the code. If you are interested, take a look at the Subversion repository. It contains the current development version including support for IBatis and Spring.
Let me know what you think of it.

This is good news indeed, I was wondering if the project is alive. :-/ That would've been sad because I just love this little tool.
I must admit, I've only been using the downloadable version, which I assume is still from the cvs version. So, I will have a look at the svn stuff.
Thanks

PS It would be nice if the forums were better answered - it was mostly the lack of response from the developers on the forums that made me feel the project is not maintained any more.

The project is still alive. We are busy setting everything up to develop the next release. We just took over the project so there are lots of things to do. Once everything is set up (IRC, Documentation, SVN, ...) we'll be able to develop for the next release. As said before, the current sources in SVN are usable, I use them frequently to get started with other projects and I know of at least two other developers using them regularly.
As for the forums, we know we lack a bit of response, but we'll try to get it right.
Thank you for the positive input. Your advise will be kept in mind.
