This is a small digression before the main feast. I have been working on a program generator for some time. This open-source project is called JGuiGen. It takes the meta-data from a SQL table and generates a data-dictionary table. A developer uses a GUI to add additional information about each Column in the SQL table. The system then generates a GUI that edits the table. This GUI is I18N, A11Y, Multi-user, has user-preferences, logging, JUnit tests, etc.
Now I want to generate a Web Application at the same time. After careful review of Struts and WebWorks, I decided that JavaServer Faces was best for my purposes.
The last Appendix in this presentation talks more about JGuiGen and the consulting I do with it.
