Hi Robert

If you had any developer time available, you could review the patch here for 
modeler comments and properties:

   https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CAY-400

This was created by an intern I briefly had at work. The guts of it are done, 
but a bit of cleaning up is needed before it is ready to merge. I've dropped 
the ball on this for a while since I've been so busy, but it would be great to 
get it merged.

Hi Michael

I can perfectly understand that EOModel Import is low priority. For us it's the 
key part as we have quite a few EOModels, the biggest having more than 130 
entities with more than 200 relationships (and using comments extensively, 
which are not supported at the moment in CM, as far as I understand), so we 
only can make the switch if can get the models over to CayenneModeler.
I copy/paste the DataNode info over to a newly created DataNode, then it works.

Thanks, Robert

Hi Robert,

I can understand the EOModel failing to import, especially since
EOF-import support is a pretty low priority at this point, however you
should be able to add the DataNode in manually.  Did you try exiting
the modeler after the import, running it again, and seeing if you
could add (and save) the DataNode then?

Thanks,

mrg

It seems the datanode is not saved only when it is imported via an EOModel 
file. I import an EOModel and the datanode appears as it does in the Entity 
Modeler. As soon as I save the Cayenne project, the datanode is lost. So I 
created a new datanode and copy/pasted all driver info to the newly created 
datanode. Saving the project again lost the datanode which came into 
CayenneModeler by importing the EOModel, but at least I had the info in the 
internally created datanode.
It's repeatable. Should I put it into JIRA'

Regards, Robert

The only reason I can think of is that the project wasn't saved... Or there is 
a bug in the trunk build of the Modeler :)

Hello Ari

Thanks a lot, problem is my DataNode is lost when I open the project (via 
splash screen) again. How can I get my DataNode as well when opening the 
project?

Cayenne modeler is first and foremost a standalone tool. The eclipse plugin 
version is relatively new.

When you run modeler, the splash screen shows you the last models you were 
editing. Clicking one should open it.

Hi

As a newbie to Cayenne, I would like to know if CayenneModeler can be used sensibly as a 
standalone application? As described in the docu, if I save a project, I get the 2 files 
cayenne-<project-name>.xml and<project-name.map.xml.
Double clicking on either doesn't bring me back into the state I left when I 
saved the project in CayenneModeler? So I am not sure if it is supported to 
just use CayenneModeler or if CayenneModeler has always to be used from within 
Eclipse?

Best regards, Robert
