This document helps developers work with Grouper DDL. If you work with Grouper DDL, please keep this document up to date.

The first thing to know about is the grouper_ddl table. This has one entry for each ddl type. A ddl type means database objects with a certain prefix (e.g. the grouper one starts with grouper_, the default subject one starts with subject, and the organization management one starts with grouperorgs_).
