Getting Started

When you generate your project, you'll need to take a couple of steps to run it. You'll need create a database and update src/web/WEB-INF/classes/application.properties to reflect the database connection information. The property update.schema is set to true by default. This tells hibernate to update the database schema to reflect any changes you might have made to your entities. Some don't like to allow Hibernate to do this kind of change and setting this to false will turn that off. It is recommended, however, that you let Hibernate do this the first time since your tables have not yet been created. After that, you can turn it off with no harm, but you will be responsible for evolving your schema manually.

Dependencies

Qwicket uses the maven ant tasks to manage its dependencies. Most artifacts used by Qwicket should be available in the public repositories. For those that are not, adding them to your local repository is a relatively painless process.
