lbDMF 1.0rc1 released

[Lothar Behrens]

Hi,

lbDMF 1.0rc1 has been released.

There comes a database prototype application with this release capable
of importing UML models making
database application prototypes out of it - just in seconds !

And after testing the prototype, simply export it as XML and do what
you want with it (codegeneration).

Changes:

There have been made bugfixes and extentions in the framework, such as
the biggest here:

Printing of reports,
XSLT support (import of UML/XMI models) and a
XML export format (for further processing, such as source code
generation)

It would be great to hear your opinions about such a tool - in this
development state.

The import would be of these steps:

1.)  Load the XMI file, exported from an UML tool - currently BoUML.

2.)  Create a database model of the given UML model by creating an SQL
script from a XSLT template and applying
it to the database (the database of the application to be designed).

3.) Create an application model (SQL script via another XSLT template)
and import it to the system database of my
application.

4.) Restart the application and login to the newly created database
prototype application.

Currently the XSLT templates are not included into the release,
because they are too much in alpha status. But it would be
great if someone would discuss the possibilities based on an UML
sample model on my website (CMS).
