Hi Roman,

Thanks for your reply and thanks in advance for the work you are doing in this area...

Sounds like I can stop playing with DTP then :-)

I was still having trouble sorting through the CVS source tree figuring out what is what... shall leave all that alone now.

I was hoping to use Dali to validate my JPA annotations... I have now setup the meta data in a Postgres SQL database... and that now allows the validation to occur.

Thanks for your help, and look forward to a plugin in the future.


Regards
Colin

ps. Probably should be in another post or in another group... but... is
anyone aware of any big negatives with Postgres... first appreances
look good... have invested a reasonable amount of time in Firebird, but
always am looking at options. I have googled it, but was just wondering if
anyone here has used both... I realise this is a Firebird newsgroup, so
if you have, you probably prefer Firebird... would be interested to
know why.


Again,
Regards
Colin

Hi,

> Is there somthing else that stops it showing in the Data Source Explorer???

Yes, the main issue is that DSE is not capable of showing the databases

that do not have schemas. But that is not everything. You need a

database definition file, then you need to override a number of

extension points to make other parts functioning. There's some code to

be produced to make it work.



At the moment I'm developing such plugin (also some time ago I have

provided patches to DTP make it work with Firebird), but I think it will

be ready somewhere in October.
