Enquiry: Any tool to reverse engineer an existing db schema in Oracle 8i

Dear All,
Do you know whether Oracle SQL Developer Data Modeler (3.1.1.703) supports Oracle 8i? If not, is there any tool that can be used to reverse engineer an existing database schema in Oracle 8i?
Your early reply is appreciated.
Thanks a lot.
LAWRENCE CHOW

That's a pity. The initial version of Data Modeler used to support import from Oracle 8i.
You could try setting up an ODBC connection to your database and using the JDBC tab (rather than the Oracle tab) when entering the Connection details into Data Modeler.
Alternatively, if you can get hold of an earlier version of Data Modeler (e.g. version 3.0 or earlier), you could try this (and if it works you could then upgrade your model to the current version).

Any tools for converting java class to xml schema ?

Hi,
Are there any tools out there that can convert my java class to xml schema. How such tools take care of java collections like HashTable, ArrayList etc. in my class structure. I am not interested in writing any configuration files(like jaxb configuration files, jibx binding xml files etc.) for serving this purpose and the can be able to give me xml schema from the java classes. Please suggest ...
I am not sure even JAXB 2.0 allows me to do this without writing any jaxb configuration files or annotations in my java class which is not there in JDK 1.4.2
Thanks & Regards,
Kr.

Hi,
You can convert the EDI file to XML in any of the ways
1) Using third party seeburger adapters
2) Conversion agent
3) Stylus studio.
I think using java code it will be very difficult.
Thnx

Any tools to reverse a cap file?

Do any of you all know if there are tools (open source or commercial) that will reverse a cap file to a class file? Yeah, I know, without the export files there will be a loss of meaningful names for the packages, classes and methods, but it should still be possible (with some effort). I have not found one but thought that perhaps you all might know of one.
Lacking that, does any one know if there are any open source tools to display the contents of a cap file (jca like output). I have heard that some of the commercial toolkits (like GEM) have tools that can do this. But I don't have one and they are not open source. I figure if I'm going to write a tool to deconvert (or decap) a cap file, starting with an open source tool would make things quicker...
Ideally I would like to reverse a cap file all the way back to a Java source file and I'm guessing that if I can get a cap file back to a class file then a normal decompiler should do the rest.
Dan

Hi Dan,
After 3 years I want to ask you, did you get any such decompilers etc or not ?
I also want to convert the cap file to source code. If I can not do this, at least is there a way or tool that can parse the byte code for me.
A reply would be highly appreciated.
Thanks,
AQ

Reverse engineer data model

I was trying to reverse engineer database information into a data model diagram in visio 2000.
I received the following error :
Encountered a fatal error during reverse engineer of information from database
My Database version is
Oracle9i Enterprise Edition 9.2.0.5.0 64bit
Is it true that Visio does not support Oracle 9i (as I was told) ? If so, is there any freeware on internet where I can do the same (reverse engineer)
Thanks

You can use most any ERD product to reverse engineer an existing system: oracle designer, ERWin ,ER/Studio, etc....
But it is likely to be a very manual process.
If the application does not make use of database defined FK, UK, and PK then you will likely be forced into reading source and/or running traces on application processes to follow the DML.

Reverse engineering for existing database

Hi,
I have two different databases, one with my application (i.e. DB1), and the other with the designer installation (i.e.DB2).
I want to get the Reverse Engineering of my app in DB1, and I know these steps:
- Design Editor> DB Admin tab> Generate> Capture design of > Server Model.
OK, but I get the "Create Database user" form, and the database and user name as "DEFAULT".
What do I have to do?
I just want designer to reverse engineer my DB1, and I think that it will store that meta info in the DB2. Am I correct?
I have created a new workarea and container for that purpose, but should I create a "Oracle database" before capturing the server model? and that database, should be the DB1 or the DB2? both are already created, so I think that I need just the connection.
thanks.

You've basically got this right - DB1 is the database you are capturing from and DB2 contains the Designer repository into which the metadata is being captured.
Designer wants to have a database definition and a schema definition in the repository to which it can attach your table definitions. In the Design Editor use the DB Admin tab to get to a place where you can create a database definition. Create an Oracle data definition for your application database (DB1) and create a schema definition (aka User) in that database to own your tables. Then those will appear as options in the Capture design of Server Model wizard.
Yes, I know - a lot of steps for what seems to be a simple task - reverse engineer an existing database. That's Designer for you. This is one of the reasons that I say that if ALL you want is to see your database in a server model diagram, Designer is overkill. But Designer can do SO MUCH more than that - if you want to fully use it, the annoyances are worth it.

Is there any tools can check for existed database ?

hi all, is there any tools that can check for that existed database after inserted a database to Ms access??

Then you'll open a connection and then do a Select from table to retrieve information. (and close afterwards)

Reverse engineer error with Hyperion Essbase and Planning

We are getting the following error in ODI Operator (3rd step) when trying to reverse-engineer Hyperion Essbase and Planning models. com.microsoft.sqlserver.jdbc.SQLServerException: Cannot invoke a rollback operation when the AutoCommit mode is set to "true".
Our ODI repository resides in SQL Server.. Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

Hi Dmitriy,
You should upgrade to the latest patch of ODI available on metalink.oracle.com 10.1.3.4.4.
There was an issue in 10.1.3.4 ODI with the intial reverse when using SQL server. If you shutdown all the ODI UI's and then restart. And then reverse it should work correctly. But you have to make sure you shut down all ODI tools.
Thanks,
Denis

Designer 9i reverse engineer my database

I have Designer 9i with repository on Oracle 9i server.
I would like to reverse engineer my database from Oracle 8.17 server on a different computer - connection.
How do I do that? Beging from scratch, what do I need, do I need to create new Application system? I probably would need one... Can I connect this specific applicatino system to a specific database?
How to get the tables (and other objects)?
What tool do I use? Database design transformer says - I don't have any entities in a.s.
Entity relationship diagramer - that would be for designing probably, not for reverse engineering.
Please help
Thanks

Rok
You can do everything you have asked.
The best way is to do the following:
- Create an application system and name it appropriately.
- Use the Design Editor tool
- On the menu there is a option to "Design Capture" (this is reverse engineering).The menu path is Generate/Capture Design of/Server Model
- This will ask you to enter the connect string for the db you want to capture
- Then you will be presented with the objects in that db and you can choose which ones you want to capture
The rest is simple from there.
To help you I would suggest you go to the URL http://otn.oracle.com/products/designer/demos.htm on this site and at the bottom of the
page is a demo section on Server Design and Generation. Take a look at the one titled: Capturing Database Designs in the Design Editor
This will demo the step above. The other demos may also be useful as you want to change the data model or generate new schemas

Rational rose reverse engineer bug?

I have a problem to do reverse engineering via rational rose enterprise edition of 2002 on windows XP for my existing java project. If a class has multiple implementations, only the first inherit relationship will be shown. For example, if class A implements interface B, interface C and interface D. the rose will only shows class A has an inherit relationship with interface B. There is no relationship will be shown between class A and interface C and D but actually class A also implements them.
Anyone can help me find out what is wrong?

In rose:
Tools -> Java/J2Ee -> Reverse Engineer and then you set the classpath to what you want to reverse.

Is there any tools for move messages from errorqueues in WLS 8.1.5?

Hello!
          I have created a JMSDestination (MyQueue) in my wls 8.1.5.
          I have also created an other JMSDestination (MyErrorQueue) in my wls 8.1.5.
          In the wls it is possible to specify an "Error Destination:" for a JMSDestination. In my wls I have specified MyErrorQueue as error destination for MyQueue.
          If anything goes wrong during consuming message from MyQueue the message will be moved to the error destination MyErrorQueue.
          If this situation ever occur, for eg. there is a cable connection loss or something. The error destination will save me alot of trouble.
          Very nice!
          But now I wonder if there is any tool or function i wls 8.1.5 that helps me move the message back to MyQueue from the error destination, MyErrorQueue, when the problem is solved.? For eg, when the broken cable is replaced.
          Or do I have to write such a application my self? Seems strange since the concept of error destination exists.
          Best regards
          Fredrik

Have a look at this
          http://www.hermesjms.com/confluence/display/HJMS/Home
          We use it and it works very well for handling messages on error queues.
          Some messages we automatically re-queue using a modified version of this
          code here

Not able to see executions in operator - Reverse engineer problem

Hi All,
I´m starting a new project, this is the situation. I've created the agent (physical and logical), it's running as a service (OPMN instance). When I execute the test, "Agent test Successfull". So I guess that is not the problem.
I'm creating a new model, I've already created the Data server (SQL server), connection test is Ok, I've also created the physical and Logical Schema. The problem is after creating a new model, when I select reverse engineer option, everything looks like that data is being correctly retrieve, however data do not appear in the model. When I go to the operator to check the log, nothing is there. Any idea?
Thanks in advance,
Gonzalo.-

Do you mean to to say that uou are not finding any infor about the reverse engineering process in Operator ?
If yes then please note Standard reverse engineering does not list down the operation performed in Operator.
If you are using some RKM then only it will display the steps performed in Operator
