Hi
How can I run the middlegen GUI?
And is it usefull for configuring middlegen task with an MS ACCESS schema?
I have a MS Access schema and I want to generate the metadata for XDoclet
parsing for hibernate...
Quite hard with hibernate and middlegen documentation.
Please help me!

Hi,

the Middlegen ant task has a gui attribute, set this to true and the GUI
will show. If you place a build.properties under the samples/ dir of the
Middlegen distribution and put "gui=true" into it the same will happen.

I never used the GUI too much, neither have I used the Hibernate stuff
from Middlegen, so I can't help you on this.

Hi
How can I run the middlegen GUI?

Specify gui=true in ant task, properties file or command line (ant
-Dgui=true middlegen).

Post by DI LEMBO
And is it usefull for configuring middlegen task with an MS ACCESS schema?

As long as MS Access has a working JDBC driver it should work. I have no
idea if it does, probably..

The jar file for the driver must be in classpath. Then you can provide
connection details in the <middlegen> ant task:

<middlegen
appname="${name}"
prefsdir="${src.dir}"
gui="${gui}"
databaseurl="${database.url}"
initialContextFactory="${java.naming.factory.initial}"
providerURL="${java.naming.provider.url}"
datasourceJNDIName="${datasource.jndi.name}"
driver="${database.driver}"
username="${database.userid}"
password="${database.password}"
schema="${database.schema}"
catalog="${database.catalog}"
includeViews="false"
In the samples this is done by using external jdbc xml files. Take a look
at mysql.xml for an example.

parsing for hibernate...

You don't need XDoclet when working with Middlegen/Hibernate. Middlegen
generates the XML mapping files, from there you run the hbm2java task to
generate the classes.

Quite hard with hibernate and middlegen documentation.

True, please let me know if you work out the Access stuff and I'll put the
info out somewhere.

I have problem using middlegen with MS Access.
Actually the jdcbOdbc driver doesn't not support some features.
I wonder if exists anothe MS Access compliant driver to use for middlegen
metacode generation.
Any idea?

This is really not the right mailing list for searching after jdbc
drivers.

Try searching google, sourceforge, freshmeat etc. Or try asking MS about
it..
