[jbossseam-issues] [JBoss JIRA] Created: (JBSEAM-3903) CRUD is conversational, but seam-gen apps are not conversational enough
CRUD is conversational, but seam-gen apps are not conversational enough
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: JBSEAM-3903
URL: https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBSEAM-3903
Project: Seam
Issue Type: Feature Request
Affects Versions: 2.1.0.SP1
Reporter: Francisco Jose Peredo Noguez
Lets say you have 2 classes:
class Parent{
private Long id; private Integer version; private String name;
private Set <Child> children;
}
and
class Child{
private Long id;private Integer version; private String name;
private Parent parent;
}
with a typical one to many / many to one relationship
(Parent.children.Child/Child.parent.Parent)
So you want them to become @Entities and add the required @Annotations. Then you run
seam-gen on them, and run you generated application:
1. You click the Parent List menu option.
2. You are presented with the page ParentList.seam that allows you search parents, or
to create a new one.
3. You click the Create parent button.
4. You write a name for the parent: "Peter".
5. You click "Save".
6. You are presented with the page Parent.seam, that displays you newly persisted
entity in a "read-only way"
7. You click "Done"
so far so good... but then
1. You click the Child List menu option.
2. You are presented with the page ChildList.seam that allows you search children, or
to create a new one
3. You click the Create child button.
4. You are presented with the page ChildEdit.seam.
5. You write a name for your new Child entity: "John"
6. You decide that you want connect this new Child entity with a parent entity, and
then you click "Select parent".
7. You are presented again with ParentList.seam that allows you to "select" a
parent.
8. So, you select "Peter" by clicking in the "Select" link
9. And you return to ChildEdit.seam, but the value for the name property of the Child
is now LOST.
I think seam-gen should be able to do this correctly (without losing the values in
ChildEdit.seam).
