In our most recent project, we leverage DynaBeans heavily for creating view objects to avoid having to physically create them (RowSetDynaClass was not around). We define them in an xml file and read them into memory at run time. So when we need a view it looks something like this: ViewFactory vf = ViewFactory.getInstance(); DynaBean view = vf.getView("myView"); Adding a new view is as simple as adding a few lines of XML. This approach allows use to leverage DynaBeans and not necessarily be dependent on Struts. robert > -----Original Message----- > From: MJ McLaren, Information Systems and Computing > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: Wednesday, January 22, 2003 7:30 AM > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: Struts-config.xml and DynaBeans > > > Hi, > > This is my very first contribution.
