Seam reverse engineering tool

[jkrupka]

I'm trying to use the Seam CRUD tool to get a simple app up against a mysql db... it deploys ok until it hits the seam init stuff, then here's what happens...

I took all the defaults, other than of course changing the datasource. I can run the seam examples ok, as I have done the latest upgrade. I'm on the newest release of Jboss IDE and hibernate tools, but I tried switching to various more recent builds but that doesn't fix it.

The seam.properties file (which is included in the .ejb3 file) has the following entries:
org.jboss.seam.core.init.managedPersistenceContexts entityManager
org.jboss.seam.core.init.jndiPattern seamapp/#\{ejbName}/local

I've also tried putting these settings in the web.xml file, but to no avail.

I've run out of ideas... please help!

Thx ahead of time...

It might (again) not be in sync :( Sorry for that.

We plan a major rework of the templates (with no timeframe).

[jkrupka]

Would the problem be with the reverse engineering tool then or with seam? Are there any kind of work arounds I can do, versions I can switch to or should I just forget about it for now?

Thanks again.

this should be very much working in the latest nightly buildes (at least since the ones from JBossWorld where i fixed this)

[patrickvankann]

Could you clarify which nightly build?

Is it Seam or JBoss Eclipse IDE?

I have run into this problem as well as the fact that the IDE generates classes that try to import the non-existent javax.ejb.Interceptors class.

I can get other Seam apps to work, just not ones generated by the IDE.

Thanks very much in advance

hibernate tools nighlty builds (which is part of the ide)

I have tried to download the windows bundles from http://labs.jboss.com/portal/jbosside/downloads/nightly but each link appears broken. For example:

http://download.jboss.org/jbosside/builds/nightly/200602282339-nightly/bundle/JBossIDE-200602282339-nightly-Bundle-win32.zip

Should I try elsewhere?

Thanks in advance.

I am getting this error:
09:44:41,552 ERROR [[/seamapp]] Exception sending context initialized event to listener instance of class org.jboss.seam.servlet.SeamListener
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: no property for configuration setting: org.jboss.seam.core.init.managedPersistenceContexts

Any idea? I tried both the latest release and nightly build :(

Hi,

Is there any plan to fix the templates ?

Since july 06, I don't see much progress on that topic

I've downloaded JBoss IDE 1.6.2 and the latest Jems Installer (jems-installer-1.2.0.BETA.jar) but still after the reverse engineer :
-- incorrect import javax.ejb.Interceptors;
-- and this error :
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: no property for configuration setting: org.jboss.seam.core.init.managedPersistenceContexts

That's too bad because it would be nice to compete with other Rapid Web Application Development frameworks.

Hopefully there will some good announcement @ JBoss World.

Otherwise I liked very much the concept of Seam.

jbosside 1.6.2 is an old release.

use hibernate tools 3.2.b7 or jbosside 2.x.

And feel free to step up and contribute patches to improve the templates.

Thanks.
