Module Generator for Centurion

This module can be used to make a reverse engineering of your SGBD, and pregenerate some file :

• a dir in application/modules
• a Bootstrap class
• all dir structure (configs, data, controllers, models, formst, view ...)

For each object (ie table) the module find, it will create a :

• an admin controller
• a front controller
• some view for admin controller
• some view for front controller
• a table class
• a row class
• a form model
