Example Column Populator Configurations

The system uses pattern inheritance, defined by segments of the class name ending in a hyphen, to map classes to tables when no more specific Database Table instance is defined. For example, if (through a Database Table instance) class MyCo-Finance-Loans maps to a table named Loans, then classes such as MyCo-Finance-Loans-Defaulted are also mapped to Loans.

Settings for the Column Populator utility are entered in the prpcUtils.properties file. This example shows several ways to configure the file depending on the data that you want to process.

For example, a system contains the following classes.

Data-Insurance-
  Data-Insurance-Auto-
    Data-Insurance-Auto-Claims
      Data-Insurance-Auto-Claims-Accident
        Data-Insurance-Auto-Claims-Accident-Atfault
      Data-Insurance-Auto-Claims-Theft-
    Data-Insurance-Home-
      Data-Insurance-Home-Inspections
  Data-Insurance-Life-
