Hi Guys!

Q.What would be next step after using 'database reverse engineer' ?
As for me the 'repository jpa' would be the good way is making repo for existing entities, but It throws the folowing
java.lang.IllegalStateException: Failed to convert '*' to type JavaType for option 'entity'
Unknown type; please indicate the type as a command option (ie --xxxx)


See my try in action.

roo> database reverse engineer --schema db --activeRecord false --package com.mycompany.credit.domain
Created SRC_MAIN_RESOURCES\dbre.xml
Updated ROOT\pom.xml
Updated SRC_MAIN_RESOURCES\META-INF\persistence.xml
Created SRC_MAIN_JAVA\com\mycompany\credit\domain
Created SRC_MAIN_JAVA\com\mycompany\credit\domain\Type.java
Created SRC_MAIN_JAVA\com\mycompany\credit\domain\User.java
Created SRC_MAIN_JAVA\com\mycompany\credit\domain\Type_Roo_ToString.aj
Created SRC_MAIN_JAVA\com\mycompany\credit\domain\Type_Roo_DbManaged.aj
Created SRC_MAIN_JAVA\com\mycompany\credit\domain\Type_Roo_Jpa_Entity.aj
Created SRC_MAIN_JAVA\com\mycompany\credit\domain\User_Roo_ToString.aj
Created SRC_MAIN_JAVA\com\mycompany\credit\domain\User_Roo_DbManaged.aj
Created SRC_MAIN_JAVA\com\mycompany\credit\domain\User_Roo_Jpa_Entity.aj
roo> repository jpa --interface com.mycompany.credit.domain.User
java.lang.IllegalStateException: Failed to convert '*' to type JavaType for option 'entity'
Unknown type; please indicate the type as a command option (ie --xxxx)
roo> hint
You can add fields to your entities using either Roo or your IDE. ...

The 'hint' advices me to adding fields, but i have everything in the dbre.xml
So what to do after database reverse engineer to continue the work ?

Thanks in advance.

I think you need to define the --entity option to define what you are creating a repository for.
