    Adding support for index and documentation in the model would be a big improvement over EOModeler in my opinion.

    Subject: EOModeler Feature Request

    I have been following the discussions on the Cayenne usage within the EOModeler with some interest. We have been using WO since 1997 and recently started using Cayenne for some new projects. Cayenne is a nice product and fills some holes left open by EOF (i.e. Support for DB2, db connection pooling, etc). But I really don't see why there should be any concern what technology is being used to provide a tool to build an EOModel as long as it works within your application.

    That being said, in addition to adding the ability to generate indexes for the model - it would be VERY helpful to provide an ability to capture column and table level comments/descriptions and a ready way to generate a data dictionary. Maintaining that kind of information inside the model would be perfect instead of having to keep the documentation separate.
