intellij: wizard to create facades for my entities - intellij-idea

Right now I'm doing a tutorial in Java EE. Problem is:
The tutorial says that I have to create facades of my entities from my database. The tutorial is designed for the NetBeans IDE, but at work i must use IntelliJ. I'm not a big fan of IntelliJ at the moment but i have no choice. So like the title says: is there an easy way to create facades for my entities like there is in NetBeans?
Thanks in advance :)

Uhm, no there is no such thing. IntelliJ actually requires you to be able to code yourself. Netbeans lacks that feature I think :).

Is it possible to create your own content for IntelliJ's Edu plugin?

I recently downloaded the Kotlin Koans, and notice that they are written/run within a JetBrains plugin which appears to be called Edu.
I was wondering if anybody knows if it is possible to create your own content for this plugin?
I think it would be useful in orientating new employees with our coding practices, create little courses for new frameworks we use, but most of all I thought it would be quite useful in the technical section of interviews, actually getting our interviewees writing code.
Apologies if this is an off topic question, or the answer is ask JetBrains. Just thought I would ask the community first.
You could take a look at the Kotlin-Koans-for-Edu repository on GitHub. The contents of a course seem to be defined by the course.json file.
It appears that courses can be installed as an IntelliJ IDEA plugin: see the Educational plugin for Kotlin GitHub repository for more information.
Good luck diving into this, it would be very nice if you could build upon the existing infrastructure!

Component Diagram eclipse Plugin

I've been looking for 3 days for a an eclipse plugin that helps you to create a visual component diagram. I also want to be able to extract the XMI file that corresponds to the diagram I create. So far I tried EMF, and GMF, but after installing them, I couldn't find what I need. I only got stuff like this:
I have no problem with using a non-eclipse based tool, as long as it serves my need.
Any help? Thanks.
Try Papyrus. EMF and GMF are frameworks to create your own diagram editors, Papyrus is an open-source tool which is based on them. Component diagram is one of supported UML diagrams. Steps to create a new diagram are described here.
What worked for me is Altova UModel 2014. I downloaded a trial version, and it perfectly matches my need. I can buy it later. No problem.

Develop a plugin editor for eclipse

I have a question for you. My teacher proposed a couple of thesis to me. Basically to develop a plugin for eclipse. There are 2 options:
1)An editor for A-SPL language with syntax highlighting, auto completation of the cose, errors detection and so on........to help people that need to use S-APL
2)An editor to help people to design GUI in S-APL......something like a framework where you can drag widgets and there is a kind of automatic completation of the code....
The thesis should last 4 months......i should not implement everything but make a kind of prototype that maybe in the future someone will finish and make properly work.
I never did something like this so i would like to know if it is difficult, which skills are needed, which languages i should know to create eclipse plugins (for example i know java and python) and so on......to figure out if it is something i can do.
I'd suggest to look into the Xtext (for a textual editor) and Graphiti (for a graphical editor) projects.
You'll need Java for Eclipse plugins.
You need to read a book / the eclipse plugin wiki about Eclipse architecture as it's critical to know the paradigms in use.
There's an example XML plugin editor that you can create from the 'New Plugin' wizard which would be a good starting point for the first option.
good luck. :)

Is there a Maven plugin to generate AS3 classes from Java for BlazeDS?

I'm looking for a maven plugin that would generate ActionScript3 classes from Java classes in order to access them by object remoting.
I've seen FlexMojo but it uses the GraniteDS generator which create some problems when it comes to map Enum objects (which can be fix through a workaround that is describe here : http://dev.c-ware.de/confluence/display/PUBLIC/Flexmojos+generated+AS3+model+with+Enum+support+using+BlazeDS?focusedCommentId=7634946&#comment-7634946 if you've googled your way here this might be useful) when working with BlazeDS.
Everything that I found so far are people who explain how to generate VO classes on flex side using Flash Builder 4, but this solution can not be used in an industrial development environment.
Take a look also on http://flex-annotations.aixcept.net/examples/actionscript.html
I also found this one, and while it is not a maven plug-in it could possibly be turned into one:
https://sourceforge.net/projects/cleartoolkit/
It was created by the guys who authored the book "Enterprise Development with Flex". Look for the utility DTO2Fx.

anyone know of a shared To-do list plugin for eclipse

Does anyone know of shared TODO list plugin for Eclipse that allows users in a a development team to all view and edit the same list of tasks?
Mylyn can be used to integrate issue tracking systems into the IDE.
It does this by making tasks a first class part of Eclipse, and integrating rich and offline editing for repositories such as Bugzilla, Trac, and JIRA.
If you are not looking for a lightweight solution, then you might give it a try.
Other than the already built-in "Tasks"? It works by adding TODO, XXX or FIXME (in caps) in comments in the source code. I think this works pretty good and we use it at work all the time.
I don't know about such particular plug-in, but maybe that you could take a look to what the Communication framework or the Mylin feature offer you in term of collaborative work.
If you want to track a TODO-list among a couple of developer, you really want to use a issue-tracking system such as Bugzilla, Trac, or Jira. As soon as you've started to add tasks to it, you'll want features such as sorting on different fields, different kinds of views, etc.
That said, Mylyn is the best way to integrate it into Eclipse.
Ive just installed a plugin called fasttrack which is just the kind of thing I was looking for. Works best with SVN, but you can also use it with CVS.
