Hi Kasun,

I followed your help page and managed to install easily the Persistence Tooling 
plugins.

I was also able to generate some persistence code for a testing entry and I 
successfully tested this code in a small class (which gets a Person and updates 
one of its attribute).

Congratulations! It works great...

Of course, this is not something we could be shipping as is in Studio, and a 
few things need to be re-worked in order to make the plugin more powerful and 
customizable (like a tighter integration into Eclipse for code generation and 
the ability to change the default connection to the DAO class for example).
But, this is a very good starting point. :)

Just, one small bug I came across while testing: when arriving to the 
attributes selection page of the wizard, I couldn't move to the next page or 
finish the wizard, I had to (un)check one element to get the buttons to work.
A very minor bug, which can probably be fixed before the end of the GSoC 
deadline.

Regards,
Pierre-Arnaud
