Re: Database table names

Hi,

There are 2 opened JIRA for this:
https//issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IMAP-228 Name JPA Database Tables 
and Columns
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IMAP-233 jpa mapping files

The first JIRA is about adding annotations in the JAVA entities to fix 
the databases and column names so they will be the same for every 
database vendors.
We can discuss if we need to add a JAMES_ prefix to the table names or 
if we should advice to use a dedicated table space for James database.

The second JIRA is about having external mapping XML files so the 
administrator could always rename/adapt the database structure and 
related queries.

Both JIRA need to be implemented before 3.0 release.

Tks,

Eric
