Our code base is heavily invested in some of the functionality removed from torque 4.0 and I was wondering if any one had some advice on a migration path:
We make extensive use of village records obtained via BasePeer.doSelect(Criteria), for example. Those results could probably be considered a view of the data and I am wondering if that would be the correct/recommended/best approach. We have added our own caching implementation (configurable via the schema definition) to the Object.vm and Peer.vm templates. I have read through the new generator documentation and the customization part of the OR Mapping Reference (https://db.apache.org/torque/torque-4.0/documentation/orm-reference/customizing-generation.html <https://db.apache.org/torque/torque-4.0/documentation/orm-reference/customizing-generation.html>) but I don’t seem to be able to find the relevant information to put it all together. Basically, I would like to override one or more templates. I think I know how to specify that in an outlet, but do I also need the control configuration in the conf directory? The maven plugin (we use maven) has configuration parameters for overrideConfigDir and overrideConfigPackage… do I need to set those? This is more of a maven question, maybe, alas I have the feeling it isn’t actually possible to implement through it, but is there a way to skip the code generation steps if the schema sources have not changed? I know how to configure logging for the generator, but the switch between loglevel WARN and INFO is quite severe. Is there a way to log at INFO level but only to a file, not to the console? We use log4j throughout our project. Thanks very much in advance for any advice and pointers! cheers, h.
