Middlegen works fine if you already have your database schema...which is
more often than not the case.....(I actually started to write my own tool to
do the same thing until I realised that the wheel was already invented).
But if your XML Schema (which we use for validation against XML input)
already exists  and already describes your object, and you don't have your
database schema created then why not?

What I like about XDoclet concept is that my starting point can easily be
anywhere.....as long as my end point is a Bean with all the XDoclet tags....

When you say the other tools (plural) are still under development did you
mean Middlegen and Reverse XDoclet only? or have you looked into adding
creation from XML Schema?

..so many times when you think something is an interesting idea you find
that it has already been done - so I would be surprised if someone hasn't
already started work on something similar. (I did see a project on
Sourceforge but the last activity was April...)

The other tools are still under development (middlegen works fine
though).
