Chapter 4 Generating Hibernate Persistent Objects and JSF Pages


Generating JavaServer Faces (JSF) for Hibernate

JavaServer Faces (JSF) is a UI framework for Java Web applications. It is designed to significantly ease the burden of writing and maintaining applications that run on a Java application server and render their UIs back to a target client.

PowerDesigner can generate JSF pages automatically according to the persistent framework you select, such as Hibernate. You can quickly build Web application without writing repeated code because PowerDesigner generates persistent classes, DAO, managed beans, page navigation and JSF pages.

JSF generation can help you to test persistent objects using Web pages with your own data.

When PowerDesigner generates persistent objects for Hibernate, it can also generate the test JSF Web application.

JSF generation can also help you to generate default JSF Web application. You can use an IDE to improve the generated JSF pages or change the layout.
