i prefer to use OJB for persistence, because i like the approach of coming from the object world and define the mapping to the database, while hibernate (and others) tend to come from the database and help you generate classes. OJB is very easy to use, and you won't see anything related like PK-FK or "id" within your java code which makes it easy to read and has nothing database related in it. but if you have the need to tune performance etc. OJB gives you access to everything, inluding using stored procedures.

Database operation's can involve more selects and little bit of update/insert operations. I want to know what is the best way to access database using struts. I did a research and found few good ways: 1. Struts using Castor. 2. Struts using JDO. I found Struts with Castor easy to use. What you guys/gals think on "What is the best practices to access DB from Struts?. Any inputs here would enable me to make good decision :) Looking forward for yours response. Have a great day.
