Thanks for the posts Brian and Tom. Definitely cleared up a bit for me and also reinforced some of the ideas I have been having lately.
@Brian - I feel the same way as you about the extends and IS-A relatonships. That is what got me thinking about injecting the DAO into the bean and running something like dao.saveRecord(this). @Tom - Thanks for the link, I will have to read it more thoroughly later. Right now I am leaning towards Tom thinking of a Service layer being more in charge of the various managers. Am going to have to read up some more articles on it. Perhaps finally dig into some more Martin Fowler or something. Again, thanks for the help guys! - Greg On Oct 1, 2:58 am, Tom Chiverton <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > On Sunday 30 Sep 2007, [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > > > Part-1#comments) and it made me remember that I am confused on exactly > > what Service CFCs are.
