Tutorial : Our first applications

Our first struts application

  • 1 - Create a new Dynamic Web Project.

    • 1.1 - You can customize it as you want.

    • 1.2 - Once finished, you should obtain a project like this

  • 3 - Create a new UML model


  • 4 - Use the module launcher
    • 4.1 - Call Acceleo Module launcher via File > New > Module launcher

    • 4.2 - The module to use is JEE Struts generator

    • 4.3 - Give a name to the module (It should be explicit ! You can use many chain in the same project)

    • 4.4 - Select the model you just create.

    • 4.5 - Finish the wizard. A new chain is created. Now you just have to call it !

  • 5 - Exploit the generation result
    • 5.1 - The module generates a struts architecture "ready to use".

    • 5.2 - However, there is a compilation error in the generated sources. To solve it, we have to add a reference to the JUnit library (for the HTMLUnit). Use theRight click on the project > Build path > Add libraries .. menu.

    • 5.3 - Select JUnit and finish.

    • 5.4 - A little step rest to obtain a functional application : Since we can't generate the perfect JSP as everybody wishes, we use a "One Shot generation" way to create this JSP. We generate sample of JSP in a "generated" folder. You have to copy it in the "WebContentDirectory".

    • 5.5 - Now the project compiles. We can launch it on a server. For that, use the Right click on the project > Run As > Run on Server menu and add your project on the server you want to deploy it.

    • 5.6 - It should work !
