    Not at the moment ... You have to point Entity Modeler to your WO
    classes on your own (I wrote about this somewhere). This whole
    embedding-of-WO-framework is a great heated debate on the WOLips side,
    let alone for Entity Modeler standalone.

    ... soooorrt of. Entity Modeler doesn't do Java generation,
    EOGenerator does. So there is no button to generate Java because
    that's not EM's job in the new world. Now in WOLips, this happens
    automagically for you -- WOLips watches for changes in your model and
    automatically runs eogenerator. Outside of WOLips, you're sort of on
    your own here. I haven't really thought about embedding
    VelocityEOGenerator into Entity Modeler (veleogen didn't exist when
    entity modeler was created), but that might be a possibility -- this
    is generally a little tricky, because outside of a full Eclipse/WOLips
    you're missing all kinds of metadata (like ... where is your
    project ... where is your source folder ... etc) that often makes
    using more of WOLips hard.

    I can only assume they beat together rocks and pound on dirt. I can't
    even imagine.
