If you want an example, you're describing SilverStream. An HTML/Java IDE
where the HTML forms you design in a VB-like designer are compiled into a
servlet, and the data binding features of the form in its runtime context
supports not only RDBMS's but Java data objects (an interface you can
implement - like Vision Jade XDA's), extended to EJB's by next rev.

 Subject: Re: servlets and EJB









I like the approach of using EJBs to hold the biz logic and servlets to
provide presentation services. This allows you to use EJBs (with all the
associated benefits of encapsulation, scaling, etc), but still use plain
old HTML as the presentation.

It _does_ seem to me that this pipeline could be further
simplified/compressed/automated, but I'm not sure exactly how yet. Maybe a
tool that interrogates bean metadata and allows the user to construct
servlet interfaces to the beans via point-and-click -- sort of an EJB
screen painter.
