Java 5 and JavaServerFaces are starting to provides solutions like the ones described. But, supporting for multiple database vendors complicates matters. As I understand it, to get the full benefit of members like DataSets, you need to be using SQL Server.. More on point, how many iBATIS users would like to see iBATIS support generating DataTables? I don't know if we could go so far as DataSets, but I have tinkered with generating DataTables on the fly. (But, ultimately went another way.) In ASP.NET 2.x, I understand that the DataTable is being positioned as a first-class object, rather than just a stepping stone to other members. -Ted.
