Good morning,

I'm often generating DDLs from EER->Logical diagrams using tools such
as PowerDesigner and Oracle Data Modeller.

I've recently come across an ORM library (SQLalchemy), and it seems
like a quite useful abstraction.

Is there a way to convert my DDL to ORM code?

It's called reverse engineering. Some ORMs, e.g. Django's ORM can reverse engineer the database into Django Models by using `./manage.py inspectdb`. I believe the equivalent in SQLalchemy would be SQL Autocode, see http://turbogears.org/2.1/docs/main/Utilities/sqlautocode.html and http://code.google.com/p/sqlautocode/
