Re: [forge-dev] Fw: Re: Mojavelinux.com Feedback: seam-gen and cdi/weld

Hi John! Thank you for your interest! I think it's fair to say that we are "close" to having a fully-functional database reverse-engineering plugin, but we are not there yet. Brian (ccd) has been doing some work recently (when he has time) to get Max Andersen's prototype up and running. The prototype is here, but has a few shortcomings: https://github.com/forge/plugin-hibernate-tools 1. Connection settings are hardcoded 2. JDBC drivers are not included with the plugin 3. Does not take persistence.xml into account, if it exists In short, it works, but is not usable yet; however, these are all things that can be worked on if you are interested! And I would be more than happy to help you get together with Brian and get two brains working on this! Would you be intersted in that? No matter your level of commitment, I would recommend joining the dev and users lists: * https://lists.jboss.org/mailman/listinfo/forge-dev * https://lists.jboss.org/mailman/listinfo/forge-users Just let me know and I'll get you all the info that you'll need :) ~Lincoln On Thu, Mar 17, 2011 at 8:57 PM, John du Clos <duclosjj(a)yahoo.com&gt; wrote: Hi Lincoln- I was chatting with Dan Allen and he mentioned you are working on Forge and specifically the reverse engineering feature from the database. I wanted to reach out to you to see if you have any early versions you need testers to help you verify this feature. I look forward to hearing from you!

I'm glad it helped you along. I know about those painful days of J2EE you are talking about. The best way to get started atm is using the Maven archetype. http://tinyurl.com/gojavaee That gives you a starter project. We don't yet have the reverse engineering yet for this environment. That what Forge will offer soon. Check out the issue tracker or mailing list for updates. Hope that gets you started.
