Hi,

Iam new to myeclipse and eclipse for that matter. I would like to create a cmp entitybean on a table in a mysql database.

I cannot find in the available documentation howto do the following:

create a cmp bean
create/define a db-connection

Iam using oc4j as my j2ee engine.

Can anybody help me with this or point me to documentation that I can use to solve this riddle for me. The tools looks nice but without good db support I can do nothing with it 🙁

We don’t currently support database connection/manipulation/generation directly right now. Our tool is primarily focused (currently) around J2EE/Web Development… so things like Web Apps, EJBs, deployment, deployment descriptor editing, Struts tooling, etc.

Can you tell us what kind of DB support you were hoping for? We always listen to our users and really decide our roadmaps based on what they want.

Wel I would like to see the following:

A wizard with which you can define a db-connection (jdbc thin type) that is translated to the appropirate datasource for the correct j2ee containers (i.e. oc4j, tomcat etc)

Look at jdeveloper for a hint on how Iam used to it.

But besides this. How can I build a cmp bean then to connect it onto a existing table??

You can start by using our EJB wizard to create a CMP bean template. Then use XDoclet tags to mark up its persistence settings , being sure to use the tags that correspond to the application server you’re using. Remember, CMP is largely container-specific.
