Description

Provide a facility to automatically populate a Form's field values from a Java Object's attributes, and to set an Object's attributes from the Form Field values. For example:

public void onGet() {
Integer customerId = Integer.valueOf(getContext().getRequest().getParameter("customerId"));
Customer customer = CustomerDAO.findByPK(customerId);
form.copyFrom(customer);
}

public void onPost() {
if (form.isValid())

{ Customer customer = new Customer(); form.copyTo(customer); CustomerDAO.save(customer); }

}
