I just started looking into Tapestry for use on my next project which is 
primarily a large report generating on-line database.  In the past I had 
used a combination of JSP/Servlets, Hibernate (for object persistence), and 
my own custom package which amounted to a custom tag library for iterating 
over and navigating thru persisted objects.

It sounds like Tapestry's OGN library is close to a drop-in replacement for 
my custom library, but I was wondering if there were any components for 
iterating directly over a JDBC Resultset?  The data in this project lends 
itself to direct access (for some pages) and creating objects to 
encapsulate it all seems a bit of a waste.


As a follow-up, I had downloaded Tapestry once before, but had not had a 
chance to try it out.  The old Tutorial docs do not insist on the use of a 
EJB container while the new docs do.  I currently have no interest in using 
EJBs and *almost* gave up on Tapestry when it looked like it was only able 
to run within an EJB container.  Almost as a shot in the dark, I started 
the tutorial using the non-JBoss instructions from the older version and it 
worked!  Perhaps the tutorial could be a bit more inviting to non-EJB users?

Thanks for your help,

Eric Everman
