I use struts extensively, and although I think EJB can be an asset on some projects that require object relational mapping or complex deployment configurations, I find it entirely unessesary for the JSP and business logic layers of my current project and would be just another step for me to do when deploying.
In my current tomcat applciation I create a "factory pattern" object and let it deligate the implementations that are passed to the client from each layer. For my data store I emulate the entity and home (finders) patterns. this seems to work for me very well, but of course the implementations have some stuff in there that might be better placed ina descriptor file if I was deploying to a clustered environment or working with other developers and configurations. basically EJB is another layer, each layer you add is going to add some complexity, sometimes its worth it, sometimes it isn't. doing architecture is about making that call. clay -----Original Message----- From: Struts Newsgroup (@Basebeans.com) [SMTP:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Sunday, July 07, 2002 11:10 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: Struts + EJB ?
