I was about to write a similar testimonial when I saw
Steve Orr's message. Don't use OCI based class111.zip.
It has Oracle properity classes. The pure java
class111.zip works great and is portable. Passing ref
cursors from stored procedures makes the solution
simple and elegent to implement.
The seperation between the client rendering
(HTML/Javascript/XML crowd) and middle tier Java
servlets and Middle tier and RDBMS developer (using
ref cursors over thin JDBC) is perhaps the best way to
go.
Avoid embeded SQL in Java if possible. Access to RDBMS
via ref_cursor hides the DB schema from the Java
developers making DB schema changes less painful and
also allowing future switch of the databases if
required, lot less painful. No meddling from Java
folks too.
I don't know how anybody decides on application
partitioning issues as this division between
business/domain objects and their persistence in the
database raises all sorts of interesting design
issues....
