Version 0.15 of the Open Source simscomputing.Enterprise Tool Kit has been released. The new addition is a lightweight, portable framework for modeling dependent business objects. As I believe Chip Wilson says, (paraphrasing) "an entity bean represents the root of a graph of business objects." The new dependent business object is a framework for writing such business objects, which are dependent on an entity bean. No JDBC code is required. All SQL statements are placed in an external XML file. The framework is generalized enough to support OODBs as well (I think). The framework is pretty simple and pretty lightweight -- about 7 Java files. It was inspired by the discussions on the list and my need to write lightweight business objects that aren't full-blown entity beans. anyway, more details are available at the web site: http://www.simscomputing.com/products/etk/ cheers, david -- David Sims [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sims Computing, Inc. www.simscomputing.com =========================================================================== To unsubscribe, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] and include in the body of the message "signoff EJB-INTEREST".
