Generate code from tables?

[Daleb]

Has anyone generated C# code from table elements?
I want to maintain the logical model, but I don't want to maintain two sets of objects (for those with a persistent implementation) just so that I can generate code and ddl when database changes occur.
Alternatively has anyone generated the data model from the logical model?
Alternatively, is there a way to set up a custom stereotype so that an entity knows it has a persistent implementation?

You might want to have a look at tangible architect for Sparxs EA. It generates a complete Object Model with persistence from your logical model. Persistent Objects have Data-binding as well. So it should be easy to build your app from there.

Thanks for the tip, I'll check out the link  

I've written my own little c# utility to do the same thing and it works well enough for me, but Tangible Architect might be better in the long run.

Hi,

sounds like EA5.0 and its model transformation functionality might be the answer. As the beta came out only yesterday, I did not have a chance to try it yet though :-)
