This tutorial is a step-by-step description of the process of
creating an new weaving section. Following this tutorial will show how
to create weaving links between metamodels and how they are saved into
a persistence media.
As example we will create weaving links (mappings) between a relational database schema to a XML schema. We use two similar structures from on a laboratory that needed to have its relational data available in the Internet into XML. The main difference is the representation of the relation between Researcher and Projects. In the RDBMS it is done by a foreign key while in the XML schema it is a nested constraint.
In the following picture we see the weaving relations we want to
create:
