<h1>Input Data</h1>

<p>The input files define a model that conform to a specified

syntax/language. You can supply your own model by defining a domain

specific language (DSL). The following input files are supported. Further

can be added through extensions.</p>

<ul>

	<li>SQL create script for Oracle: the file must end

	on *.sql</li>

	<li>HTML forms conforming to the XHTML standard with the file extension *.xhtml</li>

	<li>XML files: the generator for the model must be

	specified in the XML file. The generator parses the file and generates

	a model object that is used in the generation of the java class</li>

</ul>

<p>There are several extension points that concern the input data:</p>

<ul>

<li>ch.sahits.codegen.java.inputdbconnection: If your input data is not supplied by

an input file but a database connection, a proper model generator must be supplied

that can generate an input model from the connection.</li>

<li>ch.sahits.codegen.java.inputdbparse: If your input data is an input SQL file a

parser must be supplied that can parse the input file since there are many differences

in the SQL dialect from different vendors.</li>

<li>ch.sahits.codegen.java.inputparser: This extension point lets you define your

own parser based on a file extension.</li>

<li>ch.sahits.codegen.inputxmlparser: If your input file is an XML file the specified

parser must be registered through this extension point.</li>

<li>ch.sahits.codegen.java.connectionpage: The input data can be gained through querring the

database. There are different methods to do that. This extension point lets you supply your own.</li>

</ul>
