[Van Halbert (JIRA)]

    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/TEIID-2217?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12728672#comment-12728672 ] 

Van Halbert commented on TEIID-2217:
------------------------------------

In order to provide the metadata, the class(s) must be interrogated to derive the metadata.  The first way, looking at only the methods (get/is) to derive column information.  This is needed because not everyone will use annotations.   The second is to derive the metadata from annotations (which are required for hibernate search option).  I couldn't find any good utility for transforming the annotations into sql or reuse what hibernate had created.    There is an old hibernate-3 maven utility that does this, but couldn't find a newer version to use as a starting point.

> A metadata processor needs to be created to expose the object metadata based on the class or classes indicated that are accessible by querying the cache.  There will be 2 processors created based on: 1) the getters (when annotations is not being used) and 2) based on annotations.   The result of the metadata will be a view that uses the OBECTABLE.
