Since this thread (Design question - Action Form vs Business Delegates/Value Objects) is really taking off on a different tangent I thought I'd change the subject line.
Ted, I've seen this briefly mentioned here and there - about using reset() only when checkboxes are used. Can you please elaborate on this one? Shouldn't I always call reset() in case I am given a "dirty" object and it should be populated from the form from scratch? > I don't see where this part of the thread began, but reset() is always > called before the bean is autopopulated from the request, regardless of > scope.
