I hadn't been, and that actually makes sense ... it's used by two of the artifacts that I *did* count (both the non-Tiles and Tiles versions of mailreader).

Yep ... even the form beans and actions of mailreader are likely to be abstractable into something separate if we wanted to. > For the sake of continuity, I had also started to use the MailReader as an example > for using Commons Chain as an web application platform.

Splitting out the database part of mailreader seems like an obvious first step. How about a top level "examples" directory with a "mailreader-database" subdirectory to contain this artifact? If the business logic turns out to be reusable too, that could go in a parallel "mailreader-actions" subdirectory. > > -Ted. > Craig --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
