Patrick Linskey commented on OPENJPA-94: ---------------------------------------- I think that the syntax you should use is the following: <property name="openjpa.jdbc.SynchronizeMappings" value="buildSchema(SchemaAction=\"add,delete-table-contents\")"/> Also, I don't think that that is available in 0.9.6; can you try out that syntax with a 0.9.7 snapshot? I committed the change in the beginning of January, so anything more recent than that should do. > 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 > Attachments: openjpa_94.zip > > > 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. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
