Re: DDS Screens To Java

It looks like WF generates 2 JSP files and nearly 3 Bean files per record
format.  If an average display file contains 4 record formats, then 5,000
display files would translate to nearly 100,000 Java components.

Who would want 20 times the number of files to maintain?  Probably nobody.
So if a company adopts Webfacing, they must intend to maintain the original
display file, then regenerate the Java components automatically.  Avoid
manually coding any changes to the JSPs and Beans directly.  Avoid anything
that would put the Java components out of sync with the display file DDS.

You have added quite a bit to my understanding of Webfacing.  Thank you.
