Wanted to point out the jandex-binding version in Jira that is the work to pull the annotation binding and Jandex usage from metamodel into upstream.
I do not plan on pulling over the shared (shared between hbm.xml and annotations) Binder code from metamodel. This will just be a focus on the code that uses Jandex instead of HCANN and the "binding context" code I already pulled over upstream as part of 5.0. The reason I mention this is that I started some work on this this week. For now I will work in my fork, but I do want to start thinking through the target versions for incorporating these major redesigns we have going). My plan for this stuff is to deprecate hbm.xml binding. We have discussed this before. So along with this, I will pull over the unified orm.xml XSD and we will start providing mapping support for that. On metamodel, there is some on-the-fly transformation code, but I think we will put that on the back burner for now. I see the next major rev of this work as ripping out the hbm.xml binding code completely but still for a short time continuing to support a subset of hbm.xml mapping via this on-the-fly transformation[1]. And there will also be a (build time) transformation tool based on that code. [1] - The things that we cannot readily transform is a very small set of things. Really property-ref is the only thing that comes to mind. _______________________________________________ hibernate-dev mailing list hibernate-dev@lists.jboss.org https://lists.jboss.org/mailman/listinfo/hibernate-dev
