Introducing Code Generation

Abstract

Code generation is code that writes code. By letting you automate the creation of a large portion of your application, code generation offers a radical shift in development. In addition to the obvious benefit of turbo-charging your development, code generation lets you maintain consistent code quality and allows your code to evolve quickly in response to metadata changes (including database changes). Code generation lets you extend reuse to include code with similar patterns, as well as code with identical code segments. The result is increased speed, reusability, agility, and consistency in your application development.
