I don't "feel" anything. I posted the question as to find out what the standard approach is to achieving database persistence; I wouldn't post the question if i had already decided which way i was going.
Hmm. Maybe I should capitalise subtle hints in the future ;)
Thanks to the people that suggested iBatis and Hibernate - both look very interesting and will read up on them.
Both seem to have a good following on this list. Also read up on the relavent design patterns.
