If you want to serialize your beloved DTOs, you can perfectly use Gas3 to generate the as3 classes for your DTOs. Just apply the generator to the correct set of classes.
What we *also* allow with GraniteDS is generating AS3 classes directly from the JPA data model, and directly serialize/deserialize the JPA detached objects to and from Flex. Not everyone in the world wants to duplicate their model with DTOs, and constantly copy/paste data from DTO to JPA objects. This duplication and associated objects copying is often what make developers suffer much more than having a coupling between the JPA model and the client model. 2014-04-04 15:49 GMT+02:00 Gary Yang <[email protected]>: > I have modified those templates, it's working good for now, except the IMap > thing, I didn't spend much time digging it, because it's just one line > change after code generation for me. > > The other thing scare developers like me away at the first glance: > I see from GAS part is that GraniteDS is trying to map Database entity to > DTO directly, I have to say this is not good because this will keep client > model structure locked up to DB, both developers will suffer eventually. > > > -Gary > > > > > > On Fri, Apr 4, 2014 at 5:25 AM, Franck Wolff <[email protected]> wrote: > > > Gas3 (since version 2.3.2.GA) has LCDS templates and a > LCDSAs3TypeFactory > > which is generating AS3 Object fields for Java Maps (see this discussion > in > > the LCDS forum: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1005496). > > > > Basically, the configuration (Ant task, I don't know much about FlexMojos > > configuration options) is: > > > > <gas3 > > as3typefactory="org.granite.generator.as3.LCDSAs3TypeFactory" > > entitytemplate="class:org/granite/generator/template/bean.gsp" > > > > > entitybasetemplate="class:org/granite/generator/template/lcdsBeanBase.gsp" > > > interfacetemplate="class:org/granite/generator/template/interface.gsp" > > beantemplate="class:org/granite/generator/template/bean.gsp" > > > > beanbasetemplate="class:org/granite/generator/template/lcdsBeanBase.gsp" > > ...> > > > > However, it generates [Managed] beans, which can be unsuitable with > > BlazeDS...
