MD4J: J2EE Code Generation Tutorial with Maven


MD4J is an extensible J2EE webapp generator. One of the main features is 
that it allows you to work on your model (in the form of Hibernate 
mappings) iteratively, providing a complete J2EE application following 
your model changes. So, each time you edit your model and build your 
project, MD4J will generate high quality code from JSPs and Struts 
classes, to Session EJBs and DAOs, allowing you to test CRUD and Search 
functionality on top of your model right away.

The project allows pluggable generators, with the existing set 
supporting EJB 2.1, Struts 1.x and JSP 2.0 as output for CRUD and Search 
operations.

A new snapshot of the core along with a Maven-based project template 
(md4j-quickstarter) is available for download [1], along with a ten 
minute tutorial draft at [2]. The source [3] is available under the GPL.

PS:  If people in this list could suggest Struts 2 and/or EJB 3 
equivalents of the code listings presented in the tutorial, it would be 
a great step towards the respective generators ;-)
