The requirement of not using the Direct to Web stuff is from
professional dependancies. Meaning, we need to understand every line
(or at least 99%) of code so that we can fix and enhance the product
in the future WITHOUT the use of wizards. Simply put, if something
breaks where we do not have access to the wizards, we will need to fix
it. Likewise, if a client requests a tweak somewhere in the field, we
MAY have to do it somehow manually.
That makes perfect sense. However, I don't see how that has anything
to do with Direct to Web.
There have been a number of complex, high-end applications built using
Direct to Web. It's not a toy system that uses wizards to generate
starter code. In fact, Direct to Web isn't a wizard or set of wizards.
Direct to Web is a rule-based system for generating applications
dynamically -- on the fly, at run-time, not at project set-up time.
It just means you have to understand the rules in the default rule set
and the rules that you've added to your application's rule set during
its development, in addition to the (much smaller amount of) Java code
you've written for your application.
