Hello, I wrote a converter to convert our eomodels from EOF to Cayenne-project.xml a= nd data maps .map.xml So far so good. However, I seem to be running into a problem for cross data m= ap relationships.=20 I=E2=80=99m using 5.0-M1.=20 When I=E2=80=99m creating the ObjRelationship I call: objRel.setTargetEntityName(targetObjEntity); If I then call objRel.getTargetEntityName() it returns the correct target en= tity name. =20 However, if I call objRel.getTargetEntity() it returns null.=20 I debugged the code and I can see that getTargetEntity() is looking for the t= arget entity name in the data map corresponding to the source ObjEntity. And= it does not find it and returns null for that reason.=20 As a result of that, when I call encodeAsXML() on objRel I see that the XML i= s missing the target attribute in the obj-relationship xml tag.=20 Is this a bug in 5.0-M1 or am I missing something when creating my ObjRelati= onship programmatically.=20 I could put all eomodels that have cross eomodel relationships into the same= data map to avoid this problem.=20 But when I create it in Cayenne Modeler 4.3.3 it seems to work. I see the ob= j-relationship in the XML have target correctly set.=20 Thank you all in advance.=20 Ricardo Parada=20
