Re[2]: 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?

Well... there is no such that "just a data loader", as a data loader can
be arbitrary complex... I meant, if you can extract X data with a Java
program, *then* it is easy to create a data loader form it, so the "data
source" will be "FMPP-able".

Now, as of the concrete case, I'm not sure if I understand well what do
you want, but maybe parsing JSP files to extract "data" from them? I
don't know how to do it (right now)... But, it is not an FMPP topic
anyway... :)
