Class CayenneConverter

java.lang.Object
  er.cayenne.CayenneConverter

public class CayenneConverter
extends Object

CayenneModeler (which comes with Cayenne) includes a tool to convert EOModels to Cayenne models: create a new project and then choose Tools -> "Import EOModel".
I suggest trying that first. In my experience it didn't work well because the prototypes in ERPrototypes were not resolved.

This framework will allow you to convert an EOModel to a Cayenne model.

To use it just add the framework to your build path and then add this line to you application's constructor (replace MyModel with the name of your model):
new er.cayenne.CayenneConverter().run(EOModelGroup.defaultGroup().modelNamed("MyModel"));

Run your WO app.
This will create a Cayenne DataMap file (called MyModel.map.xml) in the root of your Sources folder.
To use it you will need to run CayenneModeler and create a new project.
Then give a name to the DataDomain (top-level) node that is created in the new project
Then choose File -> Import DataMap and select the .map.xml file that was generated.

The converter does not copy the connection dictionary from your model - you will need to re-enter that information by creating a DataNode using CayenneModeler.

The converter attempts to convert qualifiers for any fetch specifications you've defined in your model, but this should be considered just a best attempt, not guaranteed to be correct.
