How to determine Fully Qualified Class Name of an Enactor Entity #

The easiest way to find out the fully qualified class name of an Enactor entity is to search for it in the jar files.

For instance:

> jar tf mfc-2.7-SNAPSHOT.jar | grep "/ProductMedia.class"
 
com/enactor/mfc/productMedia/ProductMedia.class

Or to search in all jar files (e.g. navigate to the enactor-lib folder of an Enactor POS)

> find . -name "*.jar" | xargs -n 1 jar tf | grep "/ProductMedia.class"
 
com/enactor/mfc/productMedia/ProductMedia.class

The fully qualified class name is then obtained by replacing the slash by dot

com.enactor.mfc.productMedia.ProductMedia
