You could try to look at the xDoclet project from sourceforge.net(http://xdoclet.sourceforge.net/).
Others will be in a better position to evaluate it, as I've only been playing with it for a few days now and found it really cool. When developing EJB's you only need to create the Bean file. inside that you place some java doc comments that describe finder methods, mappings to database tables etc. Then an ant script runs against this building the interface classes. At the same time as doing this it also builds Data Transfer Objects (Value Object) for your Entity Beans and some Util classes which act as Service Locators, all rocking stuff. There is some support for Struts in there too, but so far I haven't read up on this. Might be worth looking into?
