[Middlegen-user] RE: bug report: bad EJB code when related table name is plural

Thanks. I tried using the singular and plural properties but perhaps
didn't use them correctly. I'll give it another shot.

Hi Mark,

This is a known issue. You should be able to work around the problem by
using 'singular' and 'plural' properties in your table definition.



example:



<table name="X_CLASSES" singular="X_CLASSES" plural="X_CLASSES"......>



This is usually what I do because I do not want to get confused between
singular/plural items for my particular projects. Hopefully this will
help!

Middlegen emits bad EJB code that doesn't compile if a related table
name is plural. For example, a table name of X_CLASSES generates EJBs
that won't compile but X_CLASSES_X compiles just fine.

<table name="X_CLASS_SYM" generate="true">
</table>
<table name="X_CLASSES" generate="true">
<crossref fktable="X_CLASS_SYM"

pkcolumn="CLASS_INDEX" fkcolumn="CLASS_INDEX"
name="classesXToClassSymCrossRef"/>

</table>

C:\middlegen-2.1\samples\build\gen-src\xtree\ejb\XClassBean.j

[javac] symbol : variable xClassSyms
[javac] location: class xtree.ejb.XClassBean
[javac] setXClassSyms(xClassSyms);

Fortunately, if I rename the table, the generated EJBs compile without

<table name="X_CLASSES_X" generate="true">
<crossref fktable="X_CLASS_SYM"

pkcolumn="CLASS_INDEX" fkcolumn="CLASS_INDEX"
name="classesXToClassSymCrossRef"/>

</table>

Who maintains the generator code that handles single/plural logic?

Best Regards,
Mark
