Is this a safe thing > to do? Well, if Reactor's code is fully thread-safe then, yes, it's OK. I just had a look and noticed that in reactor.base.abstractGateway.getByQuery(), the loop variable x is not var-declared so it's not currently thread safe. I'd class this as a bug - I'm sure Doug intended the code to be fully thread-safe. The DAO code looks thread safe as far as I can tell. Interesting question tho' - Doug, was it your intention that a DAO and a gateway could be created once and stored in application scope? -- Sean A Corfield -- http://corfield.org/ Got frameworks?
