You might want to put most of it in a helper class in order to keep the module clean, obviously... But apart from that I don't see why you shouldn't. That's what toInstance is usually used for I think, providing a pre-made object that you've built with or without Guice's help. Bear in mind that it means your SqlMapClient instances must be eager-loaded, i.e. you can't delay instantiation of them til first use like you could with a provider. I think. If I'm encouraging bad practice somehow, somebody please shout, I wouldn't want to mislead anyone here :-) Andrew. -- New site launched: http://biotext.org.uk/ I am retiring my old email addresses.
