Hibernate, or hibernate-tools, will do everything. You can even use your own templates for the templating engine in hibernate-tools. FreeMaker, I think. The mapping language is really mature, so there's a lot of flexibility. You can keep your whole data model, including custom queries and whatnot, in the XML mapping files. And then there's the plug-ins for Eclipse. There's a visual mapping editor, nifty query builder, and auto-complete for writing the mapping XML files by hand. The Tools plugin will reverse-engineer your database, or create the mappings from your classes (I think, if not there's another tool that will). There's actually a whole suite of JBossAS tools, but mostly I just use the hibernate stuff. If you were doing seam, it would probably be pretty pimp. >> <img src="http://i279.photobucket.com/albums/kk124/xenden/ransomefocus.png"; >> alt="all your focus is belong to us"/> >> >> > I've got the feds tracing this email as we speak! Right on, maybe they'll be more successful this time. You think my threads are twisted by my own design? Years ago, these same cretins started jacking my threads and demanding money (in those days, they wanted it in US currency). I don't negotiate with hostage takers tho, and would not cave to their demands. There was this whole "Ransom" (the movie) type thing that went down, high speed chases and whatnot. I jumped out of a helicopter... anyways, half way through I brought in the Fedz, or really, they contacted me, as apparently this thread-jacking crew is pretty wide-spread, although under-reported-- they thought I'd done valliantly in my personal battle, and wanted advice. How had I come up with this style/technique that was nigh unjackable? Sure, they still get me from time to time, but, compared to the FBI... man, last we heard from their best agent, he began by saying he'd seen one suspected-jacker at the beach, but never got past how beautiful the sunset was, and how he'd tried surfing earlier, and how life was forever different. We never learned *which* beach, of course, because his sat-link ran out of batteries, or something, before he got to that part. And he was the best of the best. Perhaps the next-gen of agents will be up to the task. Only time will tell. I'm hoping to have one of those "Heat" type coffee meetings with the head thread-jacker, and see if I can get inside the mind of our enemy. I suspect it's a woman, but don't have any hard evidence. But you know women, right? Man, chicks are amazing creatures... ut oh! mmmmm ramma rammah ding bong </meditation> Phew! (Once they manage to start turning your own threads, you'll know why the federales want to learn the technique-- I can teach you, for a small fee. Considering how much The Man is paying me for training, I might just do it for free (They really value contractors!).) Maybe they'd just go away if one of their targets paid the money. I ain't gonna do it though-- I don't care if my technique *is* only thread-jacker "resistant" and not "proof", and that they've been using the threads they've managed to turn to take yet more threads hostage, such as your own. I will not succumb to their demands. It's not just principal, it's logic. (Sets a precedent, you see.) But hey, you can do what you want. Maybe they'll just bounce, now that I've revealed some of how they operate, however I wouldn't hold my breath. If you've got the loot, you may wanna try just paying the bastards. As you can see, stopping them 100% has proven difficult, even for me. And once they get you, you're gotten. Soon your own threads will be jacking other's threads, and demanding money for their safe return. You pay a high price, beating them at their own game. Maybe we all do.
