Re: Best method for Databae Access in Struts/Tomcat combo?

[David Graham]

Struts stores DataSources defined in struts-config.xml in the ServletContext 
so any class can access them.  A more common approach is to define your 
DataSource in JNDI and have your business objects look it up from there.  
Both ways allow for MVC and the Struts configuration is provided as a 
convenience.

	I have been reading all over the place and can't seem to find a simple 
answer to my question. In struts using MVC development what is the best 
method to connect to a database. In struts 1.1rc1 you can specify 
DataSources but to my understanding you can only access this datasource 
from within the subclasses of the Action class. Using MVC I don't see how 
this could be helpful because you couldn't use the Struts datasource in the 
Data Access Object Beans. I would love to hear all of the ideas everybody 
has about this and examples if possible. I greatly appreciate it.
