Ahh! Thanks!! That was a big help, and nice to know the may ways to do it.
Armed with this understanding I actually implemented a entirely different solution: I instance "unbound" objects in the bean and only bind them to a database content when i need to do something with them. Works like a charm and give me the best of both worlds -- stripes for input and validation and cayenne for binding and persistence. I will need to use what you educated me on to instance objects and then populate them with existing data (e.g. update and existing object), so it's very useful. thanks a ton! dan ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Open Source Business Conference (OSBC), March 24-25, 2009, San Francisco, CA -OSBC tackles the biggest issue in open source: Open Sourcing the Enterprise -Strategies to boost innovation and cut costs with open source participation -Receive a $600 discount off the registration fee with the source code: SFAD http://p.sf.net/sfu/XcvMzF8H _______________________________________________ Stripes-users mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/stripes-users
