hi all. i'm trying to figure out what methodology to use when accessing static code values (like locales). if i have a maintenance type page where one of the attributes on the page is a drop down list box of locales, what is the best way to architect a performance/efficient solution to this. i wrap the update method inside a stateless session bean. i need to load a list box of locales to present to the user..i could get this by calling the locale entity bean's findBy method (CMP or BMP), i could use jdbc to get the values thru a servlet, i could a have a class that has the values hardcoded...which one t use?...also, i understand using entity beans for purely looking up data is costly, but not too bad when the result set is small enough...what exactly is small? i hope i'm wording this correctly, and people understand my confusion.. any knowledge is welcomed, thank you.
