Paul,
The problem you are facing is exactly what I tried to solve in the mapper
framework I'm developing. I'm still working on it, but plan to have another
more mature release within a week. In the meantime you can see an early
release on Ted's site
http://www.husted.com/about/struts/resources.htm#extensions
<http://www.husted.com/about/struts/resources.htm#extensions> . I've made an
earlier posting in the dev list giving some background info, see

Feedback welcomed,
Fr.

Subject: struts w/ej
i have followed some old threads about this but see no resolution to how to
map the struts form bean to EJB value objects; they all seem to allude to a
mysterious an non-existent struts 1.1. is it recommended to do validation
from within the form bean and then create a value object w/the data for the
EJB or to do the validation in the value object? Seems like duplicate work
to create a form bean and a value object for an ejb, but if you dont , then
the html form is dangerously coupled with the functioning of the EJB which I
am trying to avoid in my application design. Can people give some real
world examples of this ? And on a technical note, if you use the struts
form bean to instantiate and populate a value object how is it passes to the
action? are people just putting it in the http session ? sample code would
be helpful.
