We are using Database Views extensively to abstract complex tables in our
model in a large J2EE project
(around 100 tables, 25-30 Views) .
Then we base our Objects against the Schema of Views by using OR tool.
We are not using Castor for this though, as the Application Server we use ATG
Dynamo, comes with
a persistence abstraction mechanism called Repositories (Can be used to map
Objects against RDBMS, 
LDAP, HTML, XML Files etc).

However, we do use Castor XML for marshalling and unmarshalling from XML
from/to Java objects.
We are actually quite happy with what we have used so far.

Thanks for your input.  I was thinking about going the view route but got
frustrated and forgot about it.  We're using Oracle 9i so we have everything
you could think of database wise.

Anyone else out there in CastorLand use views to help match the object model
to the data model?

Thanks again,
Tony
