jim, in 1.2 there is no GenericDataSource. (because legacy.jar will be removed)
you can still use a DataSource with BasicDataSource. after 2.0 it will also be moved away (see the faq) with the datasource, you write JDBC in an action-class. do you really want it ? :-) in my case i use (allways) a delegate-class, which handles OJB (for storeing und getting objects from a database) or EJB. but action only "speaks" with interface of my delegate see also http://java.sun.com/blueprints/corej2eepatterns/Patterns/index.html for delegate and other patterns inclusive of DAO. cheers, -----Original Message----- From: Jim Anderson [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, January 28, 2004 7:29 PM To: Struts Users Mailing List Subject: Re: REPOST: newbie datasource config problems Matthias, Thanks very much for responding! It seems there's a misunderstanding on my side. I guess I'll have to rethink it. From what you say, there isn't any reason to include a <data-sources> element in struts-config since the persistence layer should be invisible to Struts. Am I understanding you correctly?
