4. Generators

Generators are a powerful mechanism for integrating database schema into your workflow.

The generator is a user-defined application that can be launched from the OrmFactory by pressing a single button. The generator receives as an argument the data model in its current state, even if the model has not yet been saved.

Generators can serve multiple purposes, but their primary role is to generate ORM code.

There can be several generators within a project. Generators are executed sequentially. Each one can operate independently or build upon the output of the previous.

To add a new generator, right-click on the Generators in the project explorer.

Then you will see a window for selecting the generator type.
