Hi, I am building a web site. The primary functions of this site are for authors to submit their research papers. The research papers will go through a screening process (screened by peers in the field). Visiors can view the published articles online.
Authors and peers are the registered users of the web site. Therefore, there is not much data manipulation at the web site except that authors may be requested to revise their papers and re-submit. And both authors and peers have to fill out registration forms to become members of the web site. The content of the registration form is pretty standard: name, address, phone number, academic background information and achievements, etc. Most of them are Strings. A couple of checkboxes, three sets of radio buttons (to indicate preferences), and a primitive double. Of course, I have a text field for loading research papers. Question 1: Do I use conventional ActionForm? Map-backed ActionForm? or DynaActionForm for this project? Question 2: Which strategy should I use to transfer values between tiers? Setting an immutable value object? or transferring values by reflection (BeanUtil)? or passing a Map? I highly value your opinions and advices. Thanks. __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!
