Explain schema and table name pattern

[cowwoc]

http://source.mysema.com/static/querydsl/1.8.0/reference/html/ch02s04.html mentions "schema name pattern" and "table name pattern" but does not explain what they are and how they are meant to be used.

The Javadoc for MetaDataExporter needs to explain this as well.

Thanks for the bug report. I updated the documentation.

Excuse me, I believe this issue isn't completely resolved. http://source.mysema.com/static/querydsl/2.0.9/reference/html/ch02s04.html still does not explain "schema name pattern" and "table name pattern".

I also noticed there is no explanation for innerClassesForKeys and exportBeans. I tried the Javadoc viewer against the Maven plugin but it doesn't seem that there is any Javadoc for any of these properties.

It has been fixed in the documentation of the newer release 2.1.0. I updated also the webpage

Ok. Will be fixed soon.

Thanks Timo, it looks a lot better. If I may make a small suggestion:

1. Consider changing "namePrefix = name prefix for Q-types (default: Q)" to "namePrefix = name prefix for query classes (default: Q)" since it's not obvious what "Q-types" means.
2. Consider changing "schemaPattern = to restrict code generation to certain schemas (default: null)" to "schemaPattern = regular expression used to restrict code generation to certain schemas (default: null)" since it's not obvious what format the string may take. The name "pattern" implies that regular expressions are allowed but it's not immediately obvious. The same is true for "tableNamePattern."
3. For "exportBeans" consider adding "see section 2.4.13 (below)"

Thank you for your patience :)
