I am sidestepping a direct answer, and will instead mention a scenario when
neither GUI nor manual XML changes are needed for working with the model.
Cdbimport Ant/Maven model reverse-engineering tool in Cayenne facilitates a
workflow when the DB evolution is done with SQL scripts, and model (an
Actually I have well over 100 tables in the model I use with EOF (similar to
Cayenne). Most of these tables join to other tables in a complex graph of
connections. As with Cayenne I've never had to worry about SQL or editing the
configuration by hand. It just works with no effort on my part. It
i now it but i think there is one big misunderstanding: orm's hasn't been
created for
to make life better but for better abstraction.
think: try to code db with 100 tables into your code with pure sql and jdbc and
try the
same with orm. yes, you can lead in orm annotation hell but you do it jus
earnt how to use it.
You will have a lot of fun with cayenne.

There's nothing wrong with editing the models by hand. I sometimes
make small changes by hand myself.
But the best way to learn the xml format right now is going to be to
set up an initial model using the modeler tool. There's no
user-friendly documentation on the format of the model right now
and a lot of other software too :-)

In fact I would argue that any system that requires you to edit xml by hand
is fundamentally broken (I"m looking at you JPA). XML is meant for machines
not humans, and if you develop an xml dialect to represent something you've
only started your work. Never make your users edit XML. Never.

hi folks,
i'm searching for tutorial for using cayene without caynene modeler, i need
something like "download this jar, write this bean, edit this xml in this way
and this is how you can access objects from database".
i'm not fun of grafical/ide tools (writing this hope this won't lead into

This message should be on the user mailing list, not the dev list, so
please reply there.
Cayenne is not primarily intended to be used that way, so there is no
tutorial. It is possible to do, but there's not really a good reason to
for a beginner. Using the modeler prevents from having to know t
