Max Rydahl Andersen commented on JBDS-2852:
-------------------------------------------

I'm trying to locate the other jiras we have for this discussing the option of having JBoss Servers detect the database setup and import/export them in tools but I can't locate that right now.

As I read the teiid docs you already have big parts of this via your "import connection" which reads from the server and that is exactly what we need. Lets bring this to jboss tools core server setup.

One thing I could not spot in the import is how you handle the driver jars?

> Connecting to a database from within JBDS/Eclipse is a multi-step, multi-screen, potentially error-prone challenge.    
> Forge is involved as it can generate entities from schema
> Datasources are needed in/on AS/Wildfly/EAP in order for the project deploy
> Persistence.xml may needed to be tweaked for the datasource
> End-user would like to navigate the schema in the DTP/Hibernate Tools, interactively review the data and there was once a feature for viewing an ORM diagram that I seem to have forgotten how it is displayed.
> What happens when a project that needs a database connection is imported into the IDE? 
> This was partially addressed with
> https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBIDE-15263
> Let's see if we can continue to improve the workflow by reducing steps, making it more obvious what steps are required (e.g. hey developer, get the mysql driver .jar), auto generating the -ds.xml, with a decent explanation for the end-user to follow.
