Assuming HttpSession is the place where I will store reference of business delegate; can I store the ValueObject(VO) object also at HttpSession (session)?
By storing the VO in session, can we achieve the reduction in network traffic in operations like update, which will take data from screen, update VO object of session, use this VO only to update the screen and pass this VO to EJB to update the database. Here we are reducing the network traffic by not expecting VO back from EJB. Is this seems logical? Please advice.

Unlike most, this individual described the entire environment so that we may have a better understanding of the question. Which was, "should store reference of business delegate in the HttpSession so that another Action class (some another event in same session) can refer to the existing stateful session bean instance" that seems like a logical STRUTS related question to me. Now to answer the question. HttpSession would be the logical place to store the reference to resources needed across multiple HTTP requests -----Original Message----- From: SasiDharma Tharmarajah [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, December 30, 2003 7:36 AM To: Struts Users Mailing List Subject: RE: Stateful session bean I suppose this user group mainly caters for struts and strust related issues...

Architecture: Action --> Business Delegate --> Session Bean --> Database Business delegate will hold a reference of session bean, this uses Service locator pattern to get Home Object reference. It will have business methods which will invoke corresponding methods on session EJB. In case of stateless session bean, I don't seem any problem but if I have to use stateful session bean then I think I should store reference of business delegate in the HttpSession so that another Action class (some another event in same session) can refer to the existing stateful session bean instance through business delegate which can be accessed from HttpSession. Please reply.
