## Generate data beans

Select this if you want to generate the Java data beans based on DATACLASS and ATTRIBUTE associations. The data beans generator also reads any existing Java files previously generated and preserves the code you have added.

DATACLASS and ATTRIBUTE tags can be automatically created during the conversion for fields in the .RC file. To do this, the following naming convention must be used:

- IDCB_PackageAndBeanName_Attribute: automatically generates a DATACLASS tag containing PackageAndBeanName and an ATTRIBUTE tag with Attribute. For example, IDCB_com_ibm_as400_ui_SampleBean_SampleAttribute would generate:

- A DATACLASS tag with com.ibm.as400.ui.SampleBean
- An ATTRIBUTE tag with SampleAttribute

- Using an ID other than IDCB_PackageAndBeanName_Attribute as a component will not automatically generate a DATACLASS and ATTRIBUTE tag for a user interface component.
