<div dir="ltr"><div><div><div>Hey Robb,<br><br></div>This is awesome! I think very valuable as well. To start adding annotations, take a look at how the FieldPlugin (JPA Specific) does it - <a href="https://github.com/forge/core/blob/master/javaee-impl/src/main/java/org/jboss/forge/spec/javaee/jpa/FieldPlugin.java#L433">https://github.com/forge/core/blob/master/javaee-impl/src/main/java/org/jboss/forge/spec/javaee/jpa/FieldPlugin.java#L433</a><br>
<br></div>That should give you almost everything you need. You'll want to make sure you use the Forge Resource API to do your work (don't use regular File() objects.)<br><br></div>Anything else you need?<br></div>

I have been working on something with Forge to build out projects really quickly. I do it with cut and pastes now. But is so simple, it should be possible to write a plugin to do this. I take the views that are automatically generated by the Forge and cut and paste them together.<br>
<br>
What I wanted to do was a plugin that would take the views created by the forge (create.xhtml, search.xhtml, view.xhtml) and build them into another view. Example taking a customer.xhtml and creditCard.xhtml and combining them to be a customerRegistration.xhtml. Really easy with the forge frame work. Just requires adding a cascade and fetch to the @ManyToOne annotation.<br>
<br>
Really simple.<br>
<br>
Then wanted to try something more complicated like a Booking (from TicketMonster) by combining more and creating a backing bean by injecting other backing beans into it.<br>
<br>
While the UI will not be pretty; but IMHO it creates a solid starting point really fast, that can be easily beautified later. Just doing it cut and paste really speeds up development.<br>
