Patrick Linskey commented on OPENJPA-94: ---------------------------------------- I added an optimization for MySQL with r492032, but disabled it by default since http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/delete.html mentions that it may fail if using InnoDB and delete constraints. > Allow MappingTool and persistence.xml to support drop-create for database > schema > -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: OPENJPA-94 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OPENJPA-94 > Project: OpenJPA > Issue Type: New Feature > Reporter: Shay Banon > > Currently, in the persistence context, one can define: > <property name="openjpa.jdbc.SynchronizeMappings" value="buildSchema" /> > Which causes OpenJPA to build the database schema based on the mapping > defined. Currently, there is no way to define it to drop tables if they > exists before creating the database schema. This is very useful for tests > that drop (if exists) and creates new tables for each test. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
