Houston, we have a problem. :(((

If splitting the schema in two separate schemas (modules), let's say A and
B, and A contains a table that references B then:
+ the classes for A module are generated correctly (complete)
+ the classes generated for B module have the following problem: don't have
the method to point to the table from the external schema.

As an example:

module A has table TableA.
module B has table TableB.
TableA has a foreign key to TableB (let's say fk).

ClassA contains a method getB().

THE PROBLEM: ClassB DOES NOT HAVE THE METHOD getAs() : List. :(((( Very bad
news.

This is normal to happen because when building the classes for module B,
there is no external-schema to moduleA, so the generator does not know the
id is referenced by a foreign key.

Only the moduleA has the external-schema defined, so it generates metods for
the tables related in module B.

This is a huge drawback when it comes to split the schema into several
smaller schemas. If you have some ideas, pls share!!!

I have to forget about splitting the schema file into several smaller files
and I am going to use a large schema file for all the DB. But now I have to
figure out how to generate separate packages from classes of the same
schema.

The next mail will contain a proposal to solve this problem, but this
includes changing the code and adding new functionality.

HIH,
Alex
