you should always develop to interfaces or abstract classes, they convey the contract and hide the implementation details
when working with the POJOs only use the interfaces, never declare a type with suffix *Impl the only time you will use the *Impl is when implementing them :-) the factory is designed to avoid the need for you to know the implementation class this is a good practice because: 1. you model MyEntity 2. the interface is called MyEntity 3. only the factory 'knows' the implementation for MyEntity 4. you will never need to worry about the implementation of MyEntity when using it --> you use what you have modeled, not what has been generated 'extra' -- Wouter Zoons - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.andromda.org/ _________________________________________________________ Reply to the post : http://galaxy.andromda.org/forum/viewtopic.php?p=3737#3737 Posting to http://forum.andromda.org/ is preferred over posting to the mailing list! ------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net email is Sponsored by the Better Software Conference & EXPO September 19-22, 2005 * San Francisco, CA * Development Lifecycle Practices Agile & Plan-Driven Development * Managing Projects & Teams * Testing & QA Security * Process Improvement & Measurement * http://www.sqe.com/bsce5sf _______________________________________________ Andromda-user mailing list Andromda-user@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/andromda-user
