Hi All,
I've managed to get ReverseMappingTool running from within a plain-old Java
method. Using the following:
--------------------------------------------------------
JDBCConfiguration result = new JDBCConfigurationImpl();
result.setDBDictionary(xyz);
result.setConnectionURL(xyz);
result.setConnectionDriverName(xyz);
result.setConnectionUserName(xyz);
result.setConnectionPassword(xyz);
Options rmOpts = new Options();
String argString = "-Log DefaultLevel=INFO -metaDataFactory jpa() -metadata
none";
rmOpts.setFromCmdLine(StringUtils.split(argString, " "));
try {
ReverseMappingTool.run(result, new String[0], rmOpts);
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
--------------------------------------------------------
This successfully writes Java files reflective of the specified database to
the directory that my code is running in, as expected.
However, I would much prefer to have the Java generated returned in a map as
a String, than written to a file. I see a way of changing the code slightly
to make this happen: The method "recordCode" called by run on [1] below can
take a Map, and if the Map is there, it will write the code that I want to
that map. So if a variant of run(...) is added that allows the user to pass
a map which is then forwarded to that method, then the user will get the
code back.

Does anyone see a better way to do this, that doesn't involve changing the
code? And if not, should I submit this customization as a patch?
Thanks,
Aron
