Few more details :-
See the entitydef folder of any component.
entitymodel.xml files that are present in each component(for eg :-
accounting,content) to define the entities.
This entities are grouped into entitygroup.xml and this file also present in
each component.
In the entitygroup.xml all the entities are grouped into the "group"
attribute of <entity-group> tag.
In most of the entitygroup.xml file entities are grouped into "org.ofbiz"
group.
For eg :- <entity-group group="org.ofbiz" entity="Budget" />
These groups are called from entityengine.xml to put the definition of all
the entities into particular database.
See the code sample shown below that is taken from entityengine.xml file :-
<delegator name="default" entity-model-reader="main"
entity-group-reader="main" entity-eca-reader="main"
distributed-cache-clear-enabled="false">
<group-map group-name="org.ofbiz" datasource-name="localderby"/>
<group-map group-name="org.ofbiz.olap"
datasource-name="localderbyolap"/>
</delegator>
In the above code <group-map> tag calls the group "org.ofbiz" and sends the
definition of all the entities comes inside it to localderby database.
Please let us know if you need more assistance on this :-)
