entity groups versus packages

[Anders Hessellund]

Hi,

what is the main difference between entity groups in the Entity Group XSD
and entity package-name in the Entity Model XSD? It seems that both are
required and both serve as organizing measures in large data models.

Are there any requirements that the group and package of a given entity
must be the same? Why are both necessary?

The entity-group helps to define which datasource is
used (see entity/config/entitymodel.xml delegator
definitions).  The entity package-name allocates the
entity to a grouping that is used in webtools.

Great!

thanks, that was just the kind of answer I was looking for.
