Generating JSF Pages

Before generation, make sure that you have attached the Hibernate Extended Model Definition to the model, and checked the model for errors.

1. Java CodeSelect Language > Generate Java Code.
2. Specify a target directory.
3. Define generation options.
4. Click OK.

   The generation produces the following files:

   
   

   • Persistent files (persistent classes, DAO, ...)

   • Eclipse and Eclipse WTP project artifacts

   • A home page

   • JSF pages for persistent classes

   • Managed beans

   • Page flows (face configuration files)

   For each persistent class, PowerDesigner generates:

   
   

   • A find page for searching objects

   • A list page for displaying find results

   • A create page for creating new objects

   • An edit page for updating objects
