<h1>Description Java Code Generation</h1>
<p>This project aims to provide a plug-in (ch.sahits.codegen.java)
for Java code generation (Wizard). It is highly flexible concerning the
the in and output. This is achieved by a highly configurable
architecture with templates. A simple scenario is to generate a Bean
class for some database table.<br />
The process breaks down into two parts:<br />
</p>
<ol>
	<li>Analysing the input: The form of the input can
	virtually be anything, e.g. the physical database table or the create
	script for the table. This input is parsed and stored in a XML file.
	Some input methods are supplied by the plug-in, others are for custom
	extensions. Based on the kind of further processing the generated XML
	file or the underlining datamodel or its representation as an object
	will be used.</li>
	<li>Code generation: There are several ways to go
	about:
	<ol>
		<li>Generating the java-class with a JET
		transformation based on the input XML generated above.</li>
		<li>Generate an abstract syntax tree based on a
		reference implementation with the input model combined.</li>
	</ol>
	</li>
</ol>
<p>The plug-in stands under the <a
	href="http://www.eclipse.org/legal/epl-v10.html">Eclipse Public
License - v 1.0</a>.</p>
<p>For this application to work you will
need to run your Eclipse with at least JVM 1.5 and Eclipse 3.2.</p>
