Dynamic Entity Beans

[vikramchhetryy]

Hi All,
I have started working on an application with some complex data model using seam. Before starting that I want to ask some questions.

1.) Does seam support dynamic forms?
I want to generate the form from the database.
2.) How do we deal with an array in the form (elements having same name).

3.) Is there any concept of DynaEntityBeans in seam?

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

AFAIK it doesn't. If it did I would have employed them. I saw some applications that provide extensionable entities (look for instance at JIRA - it's possible to configure additional properties along with their types and JIRA displays them with the appropriate type of input).

1) No special feature for this, but it should be possible using facelets templating I guess.

2) What do you mean

3) What is DynaEntityBeans?

Most commen error is to forget to declare the Observer method on the interface, if it's a SessionBean.

Sry, wrong thread...

AFAIK it is impossible to generate facelets pages via other storage formats but simple files,

Facelets templates/include functionality is very strong, but is only based on files,

btw, I also asked these questions in Facelet's forum,
