John,

That's definitly a different perspective than the one had, and it seems to make a lot of sense. I would be interested see some code if its not too much trouble. I greatly appreciate the insight.

Mike

Hi Mike,

Sorry to not address your question directly, but from an architectural
perspective, do you really want persistence implementation dependant code in your application objects? For most projects I know this is not a big deal as
you choose your persistence engine and stick to it.

One solution I came up with was to implement interfaces for my persistent
entities, then implement a service in HiveMind that implements that
interface. The actual mechanics of accessing the data is then hidden from
application code. Really if you use HM, you must provide an implementation
of an interface, and it should be fully self contained, so that it is
readily pluggable with some other implementation without any need of any
other code or configuration. That as far as I gather is the spirit of HM.

I provide a HM service that can take the Cayenne classes and add the
interface implementation to them so they can deliver back to the
application. It works nicely. I still have put an entry in web.xml so that a
session based context is available off the thread for the persistence layer
to use. Ideally I would like a fully enclosed solution, with no references
to the persistence mechanism other that what implementation you choose in
the hivemodule.

I can provide working code if you are interested in this idea.

John
