Configuration

Configuration of Db and DbOom frameworks is set in DbOom.
There are two things to remember when talking about Db configuration.
1.Configure first! Try to configure before use or register
entities. That would significantly reduce number of errors.
2.Be aware of JDBC driver varieties! JDBC drivers behave
differently. Some have implemented most of the specified methods and
provides enough meta-data, others omit some informations. Therefore,
be patient and learn what your database driver can do; and configure
DbOom accordingly.
Configurations are located mostly in the following classes:
DbQueryConfig - configuration related to queries.
DbOomConfig - everything related mapping, naming conventions etc.
Best practices
As said, every JDBC driver and database behaves differently. Here are some best practice you can use in your projects:
Establish convention between entity names and tables names.
Use strict matching, i.e. set correct letter case for table and column
names.
Bidirectional mapping between table and entity may not work because of
missing meta-data in JDBC driver. Try using explicit conversion to
types.
Use code columnAliasType if needed.
Use $C{} just for selected columns, and nothing else.
Don't forget that letter case of tables is different when created
from the code.
Very often (at the beginning of the project), DbOom is not working because of wrong letter case and mismatched conventions. Just experiment a bit until you set it right:) Once set, everything goes smoothly:)
