Description Guy Pelletier CLA 2008-02-06 16:22:00 EST
To support older TopLink deployment XML we will need to implement a conversion tool that will take an EclipseLink/TopLink Project and convert it into an XMLEntityMappings object.

This conversion tool will in turn be used to fulfill the requirement that the Mapping Workbench write out only the new metadata schema format.
Comment 1 Chris Delahunt CLA 2008-04-08 11:15:24 EDT
All unmapped attributes need to be marked as transient to be consistent with
legacy support when converting older TopLink deployment XML to the new format. 
Since the project does not track/reference unmapped attributes, either the
class needs to be loaded (which may not be possible) or a solution to 211330
found.  
Comment 2 Tom Ware CLA 2009-04-16 10:59:24 EDT
Updating priority due to revised bug categorization process.  See the following page for details:

http://wiki.eclipse.org/EclipseLink/Development/Bugs/Guidelines#Priority_and_Target_Milestone 

If you feel the updated priority is incorrect, please send an email to eclipselink-users@eclipse.org.
Comment 3 Karen Butzke CLA 2010-05-27 15:46:27 EDT
In response to Comment #1 eclipselink-orm_2_0.xsd added a flag to the persistence-unit-metadata element called exclude-default-mappings (bug 211330). This was added after Chris's comment, just wanted to bring up that it is no longer a technical issue to fixing this bug.  I'm sure there are still plenty of other technical issues :)
