Adding JSF Support

PowerDesigner provide an extended model definition to support JSF extended attributes, model checks, JSP templates, invoker-managed bean templates, and face-configure templates.

  1. Verify that the current model has the target language Java or Java 1.x
  2. Select Model > Extended Model Definitions, and click the Import tool.
  3. Click the User Interface tab, select the JavaServer Faces (JSF) xem, and click OK to attach it to your model.
  4. Click OK to close the List of Extended Model Definitions and return to your model.

    Note that, as JSF uses Data Access Objects (DAO) to access data from the database, you will need also to add a persistence management Extended Model Definition such as Hibernate in order to generate JSF.

Note:

You can also attach an XEM at model creation time by clicking the Select Extensions button on the New Model dialog.
