AFAIK these doclet only support generation of mapping.xml (at least xdoclet2 castor plugin I am sure, as I was the one who contributed it). Regarding the SQL schema generation; I never used castor-jdo feature, so I don't really known if there is such a generator - the guys here could enlighten us on this. If not, xdoclet2 is available for such a contribution (as xdoclet1 is I assume). > I looked on the XDoclet site and only have found that indeed Castor tags > are taken > under consideration as an <ejbdoclet> subtask. But I don't need EJB's. Indeed it's quite misleading, but the ejbdoclet subtask's castor mapping is not really/strictly Ejb related - It's a mapping file generator - plain an simple. > > I also looked all the way through original JDO documentation on the > codehaus site, > but I haven't found any mention of how to create SQL script for a > database.
