DdlUtils Description

A library and a set of Ant tasks that allows the manipulation of schemas in a database DdlUtils is a small, easy-to-use component for working with Database Definition (DDL) files. These are XML files that contain the definition of a database schema, e.g. tables and columns.These files can be fed into DdlUtils via its Ant task or programmatically in order to create the corresponding database or alter it so that it corresponds to the DDL. Likewise, DdlUtils can generate a DDL file for an existing database.It allows to create and drop complete databases, and the creation, alteration and removal of tables.Additionally, it provides an easy way to insert data that is specified in XML, into a database and the reverse, extracting data from a database into an XML file. DdlUtils strives to be a database independent solution. The schemas are specified in the database-agnostic Turbine XML format that is for instance also used by OJB and Torque.DdlUtils uses the Turbine XML format, which is shared by Torque and OJB. This format expresses the database schema in a database-independent way by using JDBC datatypes instead of raw SQL datatypes which are inherently database specific.NOTE: DdlUtils is distributed and licensed under the terms of the Apache License Version 2.0.
