Anyway, using xdoclet for generating getters/setters is an overkill. In Hibernate context follwing parts of xdoclet would be usefull: - java bean module -> generate your beaninfo for hibernated classes ( in EJB scenario it has to be tweaked for value/data objects -> stinks ). This way you get instantly swing/webwork support - generate smart remote proxies for hibernated classes, for example something like home interfaces of entities - generate all the stuff that makes going to datastore through session bean transparent... > Yes - the work with XDoclet and the maturing of the > CodeGenerator makes > Hibernate's surrounding tools very worth while :) > One can either go from source to descriptor or from > descriptor to source > depending on which scenario you got - and via > XDocLet, CodeGenerator (and > possible MiddleGen) we could same some very precious > developer time :) There is another tool I would like to play with: UML2EJB ( also from xdoclet neighbourhood ) - get you .xmi and produce xdoclet-marked ejb sources. Matthias asked me to write templates for hibernated classes ( also xdoclet marked ) regards, ===== Konstantin Priblouda ( ko5tik ) Freelance Software developer < http://www.pribluda.de > < play java games -> http://www.yook.de > < render charts online -> http://www.pribluda.de/povray/ > __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
