> A migration tool will be provided to convert customer vdbs into just ddl. More than likely this will be just a single ddl file - which will probably not be acceptable to customers with large vdbs.
> We have this utility already available as just a main method in one of our jars. It is anticipated that a maven repo will be distribution mechanism and minimal documentation will be provided.
> There should be optional validation available for the vdb ddl at build time. This breaks down into 3 parts:
> 1. static syntactic validation, potentially even fully resolving if all metadata is present. This makes sure that basic typos will be caught.
> 2. providing hard errors for things that are completely removed - an error for usage of soap or function models for example.
> 3. providing errors or warning for features that are not yet available - vdb imports, sources that aren't yet supported etc.
> To avoid introducing a new plugin or plugging into fmp it's been suggested that the validation could be run via a generated unit test, which ties into another task which is booster, base project, or last resort an arche type that scaffolds the developer project.
> This could possibly be included in the quickstarts as a means to facilitate its use.
