4.1 Introduction

4.2 Application server

4.3 Database

4.4 JCodeBox

  4.1  IntroductionTo top of page

Before using JCodeBox you need to make sure it is correctly configured. There are three main areas of configuration you need to be concerned with:

  • Application server
  • Database
  • JCodeBox

  4.2  Application serverTo top of page

To configure your target application server(s) use the Enterprise server setup dialog (accessed via the Tools\Enterprise server setup menu option on the main JCodeBox menu).

Your application server needs to be configured correctly for a number of reasons including:

  • To ensure the correct deployment descriptors are created
  • To ensure application specific code (i.e. JNDI lookup) is created correctly
  • The correct libraries are used for compilation
  • JCodeBox knows where to deploy your applications to and where your application server is running (to run your application)

Detailed information on configuring application servers can be found in Appendix B Application server configuration.

  4.3  DatabaseTo top of page

If you plan to generate applications directly from database schemas you will need to configure at least one database in JCodeBox. Configuring databases in JCodeBox involves registering a JDBC driver for the database and setting up one or more connections to the database. This can be done from the main JCodeBox window.

Your target database(s) needs to be configured correctly for a number of reasons including:

  • To ensure the correct SQL is generated in your application (where applicable)
  • To ensure the correct schema objects are used when you create entities in your application

Detailed information on configuring databases can be found in Appendix A Database configuration.

  4.4  JCodeBoxTo top of page

JCodeBox is very flexible and highly configurable. Before generating any applications you should configure JCodeBox for your environment. JCodeBox configuration is carried out using the JCodeBox options dialog which can be accessed via the Tools\JCodeBox options menu option on the main JCodeBox menu.

There are a number of configuration settings available including:

  • The default output directory - where source code, scripts, etc for applications are created
  • Default JNDI name to use for applications
  • Default base package to use for applications

Detailed information on configuring JCodeBox can be found in Appendix C JCodeBox configuration.
