1. Re: create CRUD screens
jamesjmp Jan 12, 2010 3:35 PM (in response to laxmiram)Hi Lakshmi,
welcome to seam! Yes, it´s true. You´re able to generate CRUD by means of seam-gen as long as you have defined in your database the table/s you need.
If you define an entity table, and use seam´s seam-gen you may generate the pojo, some java classes that fit seam framework to help you with persistence and list issues, and the CRUD views (xhtml and page.xml files)
So, a very simple beta version is available with just some clicks (I advise you to have at least a look at chapters 2, 3 and 13 of the reference documentation). Howewer, remember that this generation is not perfect and that probably you´ll have to add code to fullfil your needs or improve the behaviour according to your requirements.
And remember that seam-gen is just atoy
that comes with seam. With seam you´ll be able to do all you´ve said and a lot of things more with a powerful framework.
Good luck with seam!

yes, a good start with SEAM from my side. coming back to my doubt, yes to some extend im familiar to the default CRUD's (xhtml and page.xml files) that are generated based on the entity. my doubt is i have a new bean built on the exisitng entities and i want to create such files for this bean. is that possible.
let me put my doutb with an example.
DB - i have two tables tab1 and tab2.
so when i generate the pojo i would get
entity
tab1.java
tab2.java
view
tab1.xhtml
tab1.page.xml
tab2.xhtml
tab2.page.xml
session
tab1Home.java
tab1List.java
tab2Home.java
tab2List.java
now my doubt is
i now create a new bean tabsVo.java
whose skeleton shall be
public class tabsVo {
...
private List<tab1> t1;
private List<tab2> t2;
..
getter & setters
}
is that possible to generate POJO for tabsVo.java - is my doubt.
am sorry if i sound stupid. but seriously wanted to know if this can still be possible with SEAM
