It's the next thing w/ all the scripting langs, the buzz it turns out, is for a good reason. You can do some of it in Java. Just like OO, it took people a while to get used too.
I had to go trought the same process ... of showers.
Fact is.. you do not get a class cast exception much.
Here is something to do in Struts action:
Map parms = new HasmMap();
parms.put("id",new Long(1));
ArrayList res = GenericDaoHelper.retrive("findClinets",parms);
req.setAttribute("resutls",res);
// then have DisplayTag display the table in JSPGenericDaoHelper() {
public ArrayList ) _sqlMap.retrieve(stringRetnName, parmMap) {
return (ArrayList) _sqlMap.queryForList(stringRetName, parmMap);
...All I do now is use JTable Model instead of DisplayTag. That... plus I have a string dispacher to SQLMaps. You'll realy need a bath for this in Groovy, voted best JCP: var Client = "Acme"

It is so much nicer IMO to let the compiler do what it was meant to do for me: Verify that the names and types all match up. :-D
