A common practice is to partition the database tables in several different schemas (or databases, depending on the specific RDBMS system in use) to group tables that are conceptually related. For example, a Product schema would have Product, Inventory, Category and other tables.
That said, I have been thinking about how to deal with fully qualified names in my EO models. The obvious solution was to use the qualified name SCHEMA.TABLE in the entity’s "External Name”. But this leads to a cumbersome need to split the names in every SQL generation method for each specific plugin and SQLHelper that needs to access the external table name. Another possibility, more explicit and more direct, would be to have a new field in Entity Modeler to insert the schema name. This way we would have an entity property that could be directly used to build SQL with the schema name. It would make the SQL generation code non-ambiguous and less error prone. I would like the comrades' opinions to decide if it is worth to move forward with the WOLips and Wonder modifications.
