I tried to create entity classes from an Oracle DB, using the Entity Classes from Database wizard in an EE5 Java web project. I didn't get any exceptions or other notifications from the Output window, but I didn't get any entity classes either. Just an empty package. I suspect the problem may be because Oracle organizes data differently than Derby or MySQL. There are no "databases." Tables are the top level of organization. Was using OracleDB XE (10.2) and the Nov 9 dev build. Possibly related to http://netbeans.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=188463.
Current entity from db functionality is strictly dependent on db schema functionality, it's almost db independent internally. So likely if 188463 will be fixed this issue will not require any fix.
>TBD need to try anyway.
Please also note that I registered the OracleDB in NetBeans, using the ojdbc6 driver.
I tried but could not reproduce - works fine for me. I guess we will need to wait for jrechtacek's evaluation/resolution of bug 188463 to see if it helps.
Petr, what was the setup that worked for you? I used the OracleXE 10.2 database, local installation. Did you use the remote 11g database?
Yes, I used a remote installation.
Thanks Jeff, I can reproduce it too. There is a problem in New Connection Wizard. I'll fix it ASAP.
