Re: FW: [dali-dev] Dali JPA Tools Weekly Status
Hi Dimiter,

Take a look at bug 172965 (https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=172965) to read about how the mechanism works.  You don't actually extend the action, since the action calls a method on the IJpaPlatformUi.  This method will be implemented in a given platform to perform platform-specific DDL Generation.  That way everyone uses the same menu item to generate DDL, but what happens after calling that action will depend on what has been implemented in a given platform.

To get the ConnectionProfile, you will have the IJpaProject already, simply call

jpaProject.connectionProfile();

This will return our wrapped ConnectionProfile object, which from there you can access the DTP connection if needed.

Hi Neil,

 

What do you mean when you report that DDL generation mechanism is added? I saw that you have included DDL generate action in plugin.xml of org.eclipse.jpt.ui plugin. Is it enough to extend action org.eclipse.jpt.ui.internal.actions.GenerateDDLAction as well as to create my specific JPA platform, implementing within specific functionality?

Or I’m in confusion and there is other way to create my own DDL generation action. Could you elaborate the topic or tell me where I can read about the extension mechanism.

A have another question too – is there convenient way to get connection from IJpaProject or from IJpaPlatform? Could you give me an example with a simple code snippet?

 

Thank you in advance,

Dimiter
