Well, for Read you have variations like: findByPK findByDate findAllWithin(Date start, Date end); findByExample( Blah blah); findDelinquentAccounts(); yadda yadda Same type of things for update and delete as well. > > --b > > > On Wed, 15 Dec 2004 14:20:23 +0800, Andrew Hill > <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Im not so sure that would work too well as the actionforms are > > representations of the view state, and whats in a form on the view > > doesnt necessarily correspond directly to the objects that > are modelled > > at the business tier, and often contains other stuff that is view > > specific, or exists to workaround view layer issues (like > the need for a > > reset method). > > > > Mike Duffy wrote: > > > > > The Austin JUG meeting tonight featured the J2SE 5.0 > presentation from Sum. > > > > > > I am currently using the new annotations feature on a > test project using EJB 3.0 and JBoss.

yet 99.% of the time all that people want to do are CRUD actions .. --b On Wed, 15 Dec 2004 14:20:23 +0800, Andrew Hill <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Im not so sure that would work too well as the actionforms are > representations of the view state, and whats in a form on the view > doesnt necessarily correspond directly to the objects that are modelled > at the business tier, and often contains other stuff that is view > specific, or exists to workaround view layer issues (like the need for a > reset method). > > Mike Duffy wrote: > > > The Austin JUG meeting tonight featured the J2SE 5.0 presentation from Sum. > > > > I am currently using the new annotations feature on a test project using > > EJB 3.0 and JBoss.

Re: Annotations and Struts
Im not so sure that would work too well as the actionforms are representations of the view state, and whats in a form on the view doesnt necessarily correspond directly to the objects that are modelled at the business tier, and often contains other stuff that is view specific, or exists to workaround view layer issues (like the need for a reset method).

Annotations and Struts
The Austin JUG meeting tonight featured the J2SE 5.0 presentation from Sum. I am currently using the new annotations feature on a test project using EJB 3.0 and JBoss.
