There have been a number of posts on this forum regarding this, which you can search.
I am someone who has also considered using both as my customer is very pro "Oracle" ,on the basis that they WILL survive the tight conditions hitting other app server providers. You will note some postings on this forum from Oracle employees saying that they are the best thing since sliced bread. As usual you ahve to take all this with a "wee" ( I'm Scottish) pince of salt. So due to the "views" of my customer I use JDeveloper (Oracle) for struts development. Now there are of course good general design patterns for building sites and if these are say EJB based ( controller delegates to EJB session bean say) then there are nice wizards for creating session beans if you are new to all this. Then we have lots of design patterns reagrding say EJB performance where you might want say a "Fast Reader" to read the data from whichever database. This was indeed the view that there was "none better" than us in Oracle 4J for doing this. (Again search this forum ,it was less than a week ago that he posted this view). I queried his views on whether the lightweight data objects provided by this toolset were really superior to say just using nice "Open " standards like local interfaces, but to date no reply. My own views on reading the references he provided and related documentation is that they do have good design patterns implemented in their toolset (4J) , but I really wonder when the general standards offer me nearly the same performance whether it is now worth it. I agree that before interfaces like "local interfaces" became available many providers wrote such fast access objects to get round the rmi overhead. So I was interested, but not convinced, in using their addons. I have trawled though their site for documents on accessing EJB local interfaces via JNDI. In particular I wanted the interface between my action object and the session bean to be local. My experience with non working links on their site, i gave up posting to themlinks which go nowhere, or examples which are all 404s, and decided that probably somewhere out there there is a very usefultoolset, but the documentation and examples are absolute " ****cks". As usual, the opinions of this writer are his/her own ,and not that of my customer or employeer, but the rest of the development team would back me to the hilt on this in any UK court case. Happy New Year ,or as they say in Scotland " a guid new year to yin and awe" Colin C --- Alireza Fattahi <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi, > > Did any one have any experience with Oracle 9i BC4J > and struts?
