ui gen from db

[shankarr <sh...@adventnet.com>]

Hi!

One of my requirements is to generate my UI from DB.
I am using struts1.1 with tiles and was wondering if anyone has come across 
the same and if so,
what approach was taken.

Right now, I am hardcoding my UI to say button and textareas.
But, when I provide for UI customization, I would like it to be DB driven.
Are there any open source frameworks available which I can integrate with 
my current setup?

I see no reason why you can't create you tiles defs form data retrieved 
from you model, rather then defining in xml file.

If you're familar with tiles defs then reading the javadocs on tiles 
should show you the way, I've never done this. But my cousin told me 
some he works with does the same sort of thing.
