----------------------------------------
Hey Scott,
thanks for reviewing.
First my fault with the 1s, defining the indicator field i only thought of 1s
and 0s :-)
To clarify i added the "GeoWithState" Entity not for validating Postal
addresses. The point is, for some countries we need this "depend state drop
down" and for others not. In the assoc table is no clear identifier which could
be used for this decision. I.E. when you choose GBR (which is divided into
ENGL, NIRL, WALS, SCOT). The dependent drop down list should show all states
and substates. But if you choose France it is not necessary display the states.
For now the "GeoWithState" entity is only a helper entity to create the view
which is used in the Java Code to filter the states and substates (for the
countries where it is needed).
Another idea was to put this state list in a property file. But that isn's as
fast as the entity solution.
I'm open for other ideas and further thoughts :)
