Struts2Builder 0.1.0 has been released

Greetings all.

I have posted the initial release of Struts2Builder over at SourceForge.

Struts2Builder is a Java code generation system.  It will log into an
existing Postgres or MySql database, examine the metadata, and automatically
generate a real, live, functioning Struts2 / Spring / Hibernate CRUD
(Create, Read, Update, Delete) system for every table in that database, as
well as automatically generate all the pertinent configuration files.

It is intended to create a baseline, which you can build upon to create your
final customized application.

It can be downloaded (for free, of course) at
http://struts2builder.sourceforge.net.  I have provided it to the Struts
community in hope it helps everyone get their projects done faster.

All feedback on Struts2Builder is appreciated.

Dave,

Thanks for the reply and the suggestion.  I didn't do that simply because it
just didn't occur to me at the time.  But it's a good idea, and it would
certainly allow more database products to be added very easily.  I think I'm
going to do it that way, going forward.  It'll be in 0.2.0.

Why not just use the metadata returned from a JDBC connector?

Dusty,

Thanks for the comment.  I am very glad to see folks take an interest in
this.

I haven't posted the source code yet because, quite honestly, it needs to be
cleaned up a bit, and I wanted to get the first version out into the hands
of the community as quickly as I could.  

Also, I wanted to add one more feature to the package:  I want to let
Hibernate create complex objects based on the foreign key relationships.  I
know the doc specifically says Struts2Builder doesn't do that yet, but it
needs to.  So I am going through the Postgres system tables and figuring out
how it implements FKs; it *appears* that this query is not going to be
anywhere near as painful as the query to get the column info.  The only
possible glitch is that my examination of the tables seems to contradict the
Postgres doc.  But I'll see where it leads me.  After that all works in
Postgres, I'll do the same for MySql.  I hope to release a version of this
by the end of the week, with the source code.

--Tom

What was the name of that middleware generator for Hibernate....MiddleGen? 
The screenshots in the docs remind me of that.  Is there a link for the
source code?  The svn repo seems empty.  It would be good to get through the
source and see how the actions/etc are implemented and see if we can offer
any help.
