    <p>I was scheduled to begin work on a new project and decided to make my life easier by adopting a new technology that I had no experience with: Spring!</p> <p>Specifically Spring Roo, and therein lies my problem.</p> <p>Spring Roo does so much auto-magical stuff that I really do not know how to proceed. As this runs the risk of turning into a rant, let me be more specific and then follow it up with my question:</p> <p><strong>Spring works great for setting up my classes and persisting them with Hibernate and all that</strong>. The main problem I am having is in trying to scaffold my project.</p> <p><strong>I am working on a project that manages a few "set" references with many-to-many and many-to-one relationships</strong>. This immediately will have problem with the scaffolding application.</p> <p><strong>Trying to add Google Web Toolkit via 'gwt setup' kills the application immediately</strong>. Trying to load in Tomcat server becomes impossible and there is no way to undo the process (as far as I know). Now what? I have to restart my project from the original commands and reapply my changes as far as I can tell.</p> <p>With this being said it seems to me that the best process is to use ROO to generate my project artifacts and then create my own View/Controller setup. Even here I am having problems though, because the tiles configuration seems so obscured from how it works. I am having a hard time figuring out how to take a custom JSP that can process some of these complex many-to-one relationships (AJAX enabled) and add it to my web front.</p> <p>Are there any guides for this?</p> <p>FYI: in the existing Roo Generated MVC I tried </p> <ul> <li>Copying over my JSP</li> <li>Creating a Form Backing Objects that wraps the different entity types</li> <li>Modifying the views.xml file in the folder to recognize the page</li> </ul> <p>One this was accomplished, though, I have been unsure how to proceed. How do I access my JSP? Manually typing the URL as it is defined in views.xml does not work.</p> <p>Should I think about abandoning Roo altogether and starting a Spring project from scratch?</p>
