UML MDA for PHP

Post by paucarre »

Hi,
I'm going to develop a module for ArgoUML which generates PHP code. That code won't be simple classes with getters, setters and operations specifications but a complete PHP application with Database access, controllers, business, web navigation and role based secutiry. Moreover, the generated code will be able to check multiplicity constraints and will be capable to map inheritance and association classes to the database.
The generated code will generate a lot of classes that won't be able to modify and a few simple classes that the user should complete.
The information will be added with UML diagrams (use cases for security, activity diagram for navigation...) and using stereotypes and tagged values.
Before developing the module I would like to know if you really think this can be usefull and what you think about it.

Thanks,
Pau Carré Cardona
