| <h1>Converting a Java Project to a JPA Project</h1> |
| <p><a id="sthref35" name="sthref35"></a><a id="sthref36" name="sthref36"></a><a id="sthref37" name="sthref37"></a>Use this procedure to convert an existing Java project to a JPA project.</p> |
| <ol> |
| <li> |
| <p>From the Navigator or Project explorer, right-click the Java project and then select <span class="bold">Configure > Convert to JPA Project.</span> The Project Facets page of the Modify Faceted Project wizard appears.</p> |
| <div class="figure"><a id="sthref38" name="sthref38"></a> |
| <p class="titleinfigure">Modify Faceted Project Page</p> |
| <img src="img/modify_faceted_project.png" alt="" title="" /><br /></div> |
| <!-- class="figure" --></li> |
| <li> |
| <p>Change the <span class="bold">Configuration</span> to <span class="bold">Default JPA Configuration</span>.</p> |
| </li> |
| <li> |
| <p>Click <span class="bold">Next</span>. <a href="ref_jpa_facet.htm#CACIFDIF">JPA Facet page</a> appears.</p> |
| <div class="figure"><a id="sthref39" name="sthref39"></a> |
| <p class="titleinfigure">JPA Facet Page</p> |
| <img src="img/new_jpa_facet_task.png" alt="" title="" /><br /></div> |
| <!-- class="figure" --></li> |
| <li> |
| <p>Complete the fields on the <a href="ref_jpa_facet.htm#CACIFDIF">JPA Facet page</a> to specify your vender-specific platform, JPA implementation library, and database connection.</p> |
| <p>Click <span class="bold">Manage libraries</span> to create or update your JPA user libraries. Click <span class="bold">Download libraries</span> to obtain additional JPA implementation libraries.</p> |
| <p>If Dali derives the incorrect schema, select <span class="bold">Override the Default Schema for Connection</span>. Using this option, you can select a development time schema for defaults and validation.</p> |
| <p>If you clear the <span class="bold">Create orm.xml</span> option (which is selected by default), you can later add a mapping file to the project using the <a href="reference002.htm#CIAIJCCE">Mapping File Wizard</a>.</p> |
| </li> |
| <li> |
| <p>Click <span class="bold">Finish</span>.</p> |
| </li> |
| </ol> |
| <p>The Dali OR Mapping Tool adds the JPA implementation libraries to your project and creates the necessary <code>orm.xml</code> and <code>perisistence.xml</code> files.</p> |
