THE WONDER MACHINE GENERATES ROCK-SOLID J2EE™ APPLICATIONS AND FEATURES UML™-BASED DEVELOPMENT AND SIMPLIFIED DEPLOYMENT FOR THE LEADING APPLICATION SERVERS

The Wonder Machine Enterprise Edition is a Java™ code generation tool that generates rock-solid J2EE™ applications from UML™ domain models and existing database schemas. It supports the leading application servers and databases and permits you to develop your internet applications using significant standards such as UML™, EJB™, XML™, JSP, Struts, ... more easily, more stable and faster with a much shorter time-to-market.

Features

•	Plugins for the most common UML™ case-tools.
•	Possibility to specify the type of each object in the UML domain model : entity bean, dependent object or dependent value of an entity bean or session bean controlling access to one or multiple entity beans.
•	Transformation of the value objects into XML format.
•	Possibilty to draw and generate different packages. One package can import another.
•	Generation of a fully compilable and executable J2EE™ application from a UML™ domain model.
•	Default generated capability to create, update and remove persistent objects and the relationships between them.
•	Enterprise JavaBeans™ 1.1 and 2.0 compliant code generation with seamless migration from EJB™ 1.1 to 2.0.
•	Generation of Home and Remote or local interfaces, bean implementation classes, connectors, value holders, ...
•	JSP™ front-end generation based on the "Struts"- and the "Custom Taglibs"-framework of the Apache-Jakarta Software Foundation.
•	Representation of the business objects using JSTL or XSL-Transformations.
•	Generation of XML EJB™ Deployment descriptors including the proprietary deployment descriptors of the leading EJB™ Application Servers.
•	Generation of SQL scripts to initialize the relational database used to store the persistent information.
•	Generation of ANT build files which can be used to compile the Java™ code, deploy the application with the application server, execute the SQL script to initialize the database and so on.
•	Unique merging algorithm where each generated line of code is identified by a unique ID.
•	User code can be written anywhere between the generated lines of code.
•	Each line of generated code can be commented.
•	WM-API permits customizing and extending the default code generator.
•	Reverse Engineering from an existing RDBMS.
•	Support for any RDBMS for which appropriate drivers exist.
•	GUI (WMEE console) to manage WMEE projects and generate code, compose your JSP™ files and transfer existing database schemas to XMI files.
•	No runtime dependencies: generic core library is shipped as source code.
•	Developed and tested on Windows® NT/2000.
