The TopLink Mapping Workbench is a completely new graphical mapping tool that replaces the TopLink Builder. It is written in Java, and can be used on any platform that supports the Java 2 runtime environment. It uses XML files to store TopLink Project information, and adds new functionality such as optimistic locking, transparent indirection, and enhanced database support. It also uses a multi-document interface, allowing the user to open multiple TopLink Projects simultaneously, and drag-and-drop descriptors and tables between Projects.
