Lift with db4o User model

Question

Hi,

suppose you have a Lift + db4o project... How do you define User model? Should I extend MetaMegaProtoUser?

Thanks in advance, Etam.

Answer 1

Yes, you have to Extend the MetaMegaProtoUser:

class User extends MetaMegaProtoUser[User] { 
...
}

It handles all the stuff related to user registration, password change etc..

Answer 2

What about fields in the model? How do you replace:

object textArea extends MappedTextarea(this, 256)...

Should I simply use Java types (like String in this example)?

Thanks, Etam.
