[news.eclipse.technology.jsr220-orm] Re: Id field DDL generation, embedd

["Robert Greene" <rgreene@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Jim,

I will talk to Dirk who is working on the WTP/DTP RDB code about Problem #1,
but I believe you should be able to specify both....  The Primary Key
designation is essentially defining the index type and the auto-increment
designation is specifying how the key value is generated.

On problem #2 - It should not be generating a table.  We had a similar bug
with embedded classes that we fixed recently.  We will take a look at this.

Thanks,
-Robert
