Logical datatypes - how to have 1 model for N db
« on: June 24, 2003, 08:57:55 pm »
Hi,

I'm modeling a systems, witch must work on informix, oracle, postgreSQL and ODBS (msaccess).

So I need to have 1 db model with logical datatypes.

Then I will define the mapping of logical types to fysical types for each of db type interested for me (for example: logical type XY is in informix mapped as DATETIME, in ORACLE as DATE, etc.).

This is crucial for my work, because the model is large and have N-times the same model with only differend datatypes depend on db type - it is problem.

Are you planned to support this feature? Or is still supported and I'm only stupid, that I cant find it?

Thanks for replay (and sorry for my english ;-))

Datatype mapping between DBMS's is not currently available, but is on our list to include in a future release of EA. :)
