java.tri / News: Recent posts

The new java.tri 0.8 tool is compatible with eclipse 3.2 and eclipse web tools project. We now ship and entire eclipse wtp configured platform ready to be used instead of a package with common dependencies, what makes easier to start using java.tri.
Also a new tutorial will be avaible very soon.

Try java.tri

java.tri is an open source code generation framework, an easy to use plugin for eclipse and a integrated environment to start j2ee applications.
It's inspired in the MDA (Model Driven Architecture) paradigm. It takes a UML model from a Case-tool (including free tools like ARGO-UML) and let you enhance the specifications with j2ee technology oriented information, and in the end you have java code generated in a running hibernate based application.
java tri new version 0.7 has several improvements on usability like new application view and improved form designer.... read more

Hi.
The new Argo 0.2 version has upgraded UML-XMI from 1.3 to 1.4 version. That's great news to us!
But our current tool is unable to import zargo models with UML 1.4 version. But there is a workaround: export your model to XMI and import it by using the UML menu Import from->XMI 1.4

Hope it helps

Starting at version (0.65), java.tri implemented a special template that generates tomcat configuration code. You will need a tomcat web application server installed and you can regenerate your application to tomcat server (in the build default objects menu). Them, just copy'n'paste the deploy menu to tomcat.

We will work in a stand-alone tomcat demo to help new users with java.tri Model Driven Application Generator.... read more

We made some contribution to the ireport/jasper reports project to integrate with hibernate. This contribution may take some time to show up, so we posted a "preview" version on our project website.
There are 2 bundles, one to execute standalone and another to execute as eclipse plugin with java.tri plugin.
This IReport version has a graphic HQL tool where you can design reports based in HQL and javabeans properties at the same time. You just have to add hibernate configuration files and db driver to the classpath.... read more

NEW WEBSITE for java.tri
As a contribution from my brother in law, the new home page design for jtri is ready to use on:
http://jtri.sourceforge.net/
I also registered a domain on my home country:
http://www.jtri.com.br/
Unfortunately, I can't get a "org" domain on brasil without opening an ONG or something. Also there is already an ong named jtri somewhere else. I think I will have to change the project's name soon or later.... read more

java.tri is a new way to build enterprise web applications using open source technologies (hibernate, eclipse,jboss).
java.tri is build in 4 ideas:
- UML models and technology independent metamodels
- code generation without lossing changed code
- easy to use, a fast startup to the hibernate/ejb 3 world.
- wide spread open source frameworks

java.tri is an eclipse plugin to build java web MVC applications. It imports UML models from XMI compatible tools (Poseidon,Argo,Rational and others) and generates java code, hibernate mappings and full functional web interfaces, speeding up web development and hibernate use.
java.tri now contains a new visual designer to specify advanced windows composed by multiple coordinated forms, and a fast preview of the visual result using the eclipse browser.
The tasks guide is now working, and it's easier to know what step should be done to accomplish the project.... read more

This new version is our 'pre beta' and is distributed in 3 separated files:
- javatriTool.zip : the binary distribution of java.tri, including hibernate jars
- jtridocs.zip : documentation plugin for eclipse. Kept separated because his huge size.
- jtridependencies.zip : contains emf and Jboss Ide plugins that java.tri depends upon. If you don't have them yet, you can install from this package on the current eclipse production (3.0.x). If you want to use the new eclipse 3.1 you still can install the proper versions of emf and jboss IDE from the update manager.... read more

java.tri is an eclipse plugin to build java web MVC applications. It imports UML models from XMI compatible tools \(Poseidon,Argo,Rational and others\) and generates java code, hibernate mappings and full functional web interfaces, speeding up web development and hibernate use.
This new version was redesigned to use hibernate 3, and has a new tutorial that can guide new users to use this tool. Java.tri generates code using Apache Struts and integrates easily with jboss environments by using the jboss plugin. Java.tri uses velocity to generate code, and can be easily extended to generate completely different code from the same specification. 
Everything specified in java.tri cames from XMI documents or is saved on XML documents \(by using Eclipse EMF\), so that it can be used as metainformation in future applications or new technologies.
Give a try to java.tri.

A new tutorial on how to generate hibernate mapping files and classes from UML models was released in the home page under document menu.

I'm happy to announce the first alpha release of java.tri framework!

This first release contains the eclipse plugin, several open source libraries to j2ee development and the java.tri framework to build applications with hibernate and struts.
I'm still writing a step by step installation procedure, a reference manual and the demonstration application. Here goes a super short description to configure eclipse and Jtri: ... read more
