| Various application servers deployment integration | 24 | 1 | |
| Support for ejbGen | 5 | 0 | |
| Support for xDoclet | 18 | 1 | xDoclet is a lovely idea, and when it works it's great - but it's not very robust. Eg it throws out of bounds exceptions rather than telling you it found an xdoclet tag it wasn't expecting. If xdoclet (ever) get that sorted then yeah, great, integrate it. For now my vote is to keep away.
My suggestion (dimc@sourceforgeNOSPAM321.net) is to try the plugin as suggested below. This provides a huge amount of help when you are not sure of the tags/attributes required. |
| OC4J integration | 10 | 0 | |
| Wizard to generate CMP EBs from DB schema | 9 | 1 | That is a nice request too - But since a senior java analyst from sun austria told me to use hibernate instead of CMP Entity Beans i don't think anyone needs this feature - CMP's will vanish in EJB3.0 and will be replaced by some sort of "standardized" hibernate-framework. |
| Direct Integration for the hibernate framework (XML-creation) and so on '''without''' XDoclet | 2 | 0 | |
| Direct Integration for the JDO/JDO 2.0 (XML-creation, importing entities from database) and so on '''without''' XDoclet | 2 | 0 | |
| More support for J2EE presentation technologies specially JavaServer Faces (visual editing, code generation, XML editiong, ...) | 2 | 0 | |
