Netbeans, JSF and Entity classes from database

[Charles Johnson <ce...@gmail.com>]

I departed from usual suspicion of using IDEs to generate stuff for me 
automatically and went for the above.
That worked out OK, although the 'black-boxishness' of it makes 
extending the (admittedly quite full-featured) result tricky.

One thing that is currently exercising me is to treat the entity 
relationships between my Job and Client classes. It's my business case 
the there is a one-to-one unidirectional relationship there.
Is there a way to tap into that 'internally' or do i need to construct 
it myself.
e.g. i create a new Job through my gui. The field that comes up in the 
form is 'ClientID' (a foreign key). I'd like to leverage the Client 
objects there by name, since i don't know the client id off the top of 
my head. To what extent has the work been done already by Netbeans?

TIA

Hi Charles,

Thanks for utilizing the JSF features of Apache NetBeans.  With respect to
your questions pertaining to the Java Persistence API (JPA), you many want
to try the Jeddict plugin and see if that helps.  This plugin was generated
to allow visual creation of entity classes and entity class relationships.

Hope this helps.  Thanks
