3.4. Creating a form with an action
The next step is to create a form. Type:
seam new-form
Buildfile: C:\Projects\jboss-seam\seam-gen\build.xml
validate-workspace:
validate-project:
action-input:
[input] Enter the Seam component name
hello
[input] Enter the local interface name [Hello]
[input] Enter the bean class name [HelloBean]
[input] Enter the action method name [hello]
[input] Enter the page name [hello]
setup-filters:
new-form:

Restart the application again, and go to
http://localhost:8080/helloworld/hello.seam. Look at the generated code. Run the test. Experiment with adding new fields to the form and Seam component. (Remember to restart the deployment each time you alter the Java code.)
