I'm looking for any kind of software which allows me to generate, in an automatically way, the MVC files (a bean and a xhtml view) of any CRUD of any entity using Java Server Faces 2 and Richfaces 4 technologies.

I think one solution would be to use the Hibernate Tools plugin for Eclipse, creating an exporter like the Dao code generator but I don't know if it is possible or how can i do that. I search but I didn't find any documentation about it.

Do you know which is the best solution for this issue? Any other interesting software?

Thx!

Netbeans has that feature, based on an entity class it can generate CRUD. This is what it generates for each entity you choose:

  • a stateless session bean that extends AbstractFacade.java
  • a JSF session-scoped, managed bean
  • a directory containing four Facelets files for CRUD capabilities (Create.xhtml, Edit.xhtml, List.xhtml, and View.xhtml)

also it will generate:

  • the AbstractFacade.java class that contains the business logic for creation, retrieval, modification and removal of entity instances
  • utility classes used by the JSF managed beans (JsfUtil, PaginationHelper)
  • a properties bundle for localized messages, and a corresponding entry in the project's Faces configuration file (A faces-config.xml file is created if one does not already exist.)
  • auxiliary web files, including a default stylesheet for rendered components, and a Facelets template file

you'll have to update the generate code to use richfaces.

Here's a tutorial on how to do it: https://netbeans.org/kb/docs/web/jsf20-crud.html
