The SVG output is not suitable yet for publication, but I have a lot of text-based output someone may find useful. It is large, about 1.6Mb, and contains some command line characters for bold-face formatting, so I'm thinking it'll just get stripped if I attach it and send it to this list. If interested in that I could upload it somewhere or email it somewhere which might not strip it...I would need to know where. Eventually I'm hoping to read the input XML files and be able to relate the output tables and keys to specific XML files. This is a long way off. ----- Original Message -----From: Paul Foxworthy <p...@cohsoft.com.au>To: user@ofbiz.apache.orgSent: Sun, 28 Jan 2018 02:24:33 -0000 (UTC)Subject: Re: loadDefault Source Code
Hi stimits, Can you contribute the results of your research? There are data model diagrams athttps://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/OFBIZ/Data+Model+Diagrams, butAFAIK they don't give chains of foreign key dependencies. Some entities have self-related parent-child relationships, so you need toload parents before children within the data for one entity.
