Hi All,
I'm putting together a Hibernate/Spring/WebService/Struts project, and have a couple of questions before I move past familiarisation. In this app: a. There is a Hibernate Person entity and a PersonVO value object. b. The WebService has a getPerson(Long id) method that returns the entity and a getPersonVO(Long id) method that returns the value object c. The Struts Controller has corresponding getPerson(Long id) and getPersonVO(Long id) methods. My questions are: 1. I've been getting inconsistencies between the Andro-generated Struts using my WebService, and other independant WebService clients calling the same service. I find the Struts controller is able to successfully retrieve both an entity and value object, whereas my calls from other WebService clients results in a serialisation error for the entity, although works successfully for the value object. 2. Is it necessary to convert all entity objects to value objects? I would like the option of being able to expose an entity directly through a WebService, rather than via a ValueObject. The primary focus of my architecture is to provide WebServices. I've been experimenting with the Struts front end more out of interest. I've spent considerable time with this, and so any good advice would be much appreciated as I move forward. Thanks, Simon _________________________________________________________ Reply to the post : http://galaxy.andromda.org/forum/viewtopic.php?p=1459#1459 Posting to http://forum.andromda.org/ is preferred over posting to the mailing list! ------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net email is sponsored by: Discover Easy Linux Migration Strategies from IBM.
