Re: anybody has a tool to extract variable and class names out of Java Business and Java-Struts-ActionForm classes into xml, i.e. a free-marker usable data format?

It seems to me that it is a question of data-loader... a key point in
the FMPP design is that it is easily extendable with data-loaders. And
if you develop Struts apps., then probably there are Java programmers
around, so they can do it. And, of course, I'm happy to publish any
useful and (more/less) documented data-loader on the FMPP homepage for
the FMPP users.
