What is the deal with "generated" code?

[Sean Schofield <se...@gmail.com>]

In some of the code I see lines like ...

//------------------ GENERATED CODE BEGIN (do not modify!) --------------------

What is the deal with that?  How is it being generated?  Should I add
my code above this line?

Thanks,

sean

No, changes above the line will be kept in the code - only the code in
between the two markers will be replaced...

regards,

Martin

yes - that is the code that is generated from the xml files you find
in the component directories, add your code above this line...
