Question

I’ve tried to use Roo. If I create a class using Roo and then modify it in the IDE, Roo finds the change and updates all aspects and so.

But If I create a class using IDE, Roo doesn’t discover the newly created class at all 🙁

Is there a command which has to be done, am I missing something?

Thanks.

Answer 1

Spring Roo annotations triggers code generation.

@RooEntity

Entity methods like persist, findById etc.

@RooJavaBean

Generates mutators (getter/setters).

@RooToString

Generates toString method.
GWT scaffolding looks for @RooEntity classes.
