+1 for idea of building as a plug-in that is separate from any
dependencies from the rest of the Designer. This way this functionality
will truly become a plugin that can be only activated when the Container
is configured to work with JB Tools.
What is a Athena build? private repos? What about using branch?

Hey Barry,
In an earlier
thread(http://lists.jboss.org/pipermail/teiid-designer-dev/2010-January/0... we
talked about integrating the DTP stuff for 7.1. The doc you just put up
(
http://community.jboss.org/wiki/TeiidDesigner70DevelopmentPlans) says we're going to
"Modify DQP/SQL Explorer plugins to execute VDB via DTP's jdbc connection to
Teiid." I'd like to clarify what this means.
The work I have done so far with DTP enables a user to do the following in the DTP
perspectives.
1) Create connections to Teiid (6.X only for now, but 7.0 should only be minor tweaks
because it's just a JDBC connection).
2) View the metadata for the VDB.
3) Use the DTP graphical SQL statement building tools to create queries.
4) Execute SQL statements on the VDB and view results.
I have a suggestion from Steve H that I need to test out that will allow me to integrate
the DTP query plan view capability also.
I would like to target the DTP related work to 7.0. Specifically, get rid of the SQL
Explorer plugins and execute VDBs via DTPs perspectives. As it is there are a a lot of
unknowns in what we're taking on for 7.0, so maybe I'm trying to bite off too
much. What do you think?
On a related issue, the DTP code is currently in my private repos, and I was working on
an Athena build for it. I thought it would be a good idea to build it as it's own
feature so that a non-Designer user of Teiid (someone building a web app on the VDB for
instance) could download it without a dependence on Designer, and it could also be built
into Designer. To that end I was figuring it could live in the JBTools repos. We can
discuss this part on another thread I suppose as its a different issue.
