Thanks Bertrand ! Do you think going through beans -> hibernate -> DB is better than just building SQL's from the XML ? Maybe Hibernate is an Overkill here ? Does cocoon has some means to easily build SQL from XML source? Maybe the SQLTransformer ? I am not sure..

If your app's environment is Cocoon it makes sense, there are several options to do this: -Cocoon Forms bindings. This is interesting if you're importing objects that you're already using in forms, as you'd have the declarations already. - An interesting pattern to convert external XML to java objects is shown by Ovidiu Predescu at http://www.webweavertech.com/ovidiu/weblog/archives/000255.html#000255, declaring your java components as XSLT extensions to be able to call methods on them. -Or, use more sophisticated XML-to-java mappings like Castor or XMLBeans, depending on the complexity of your input data. -Bertrand --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
