| No....
| Here is what:
| Bean (formBean in Struts for example) delegate to DAO for CRUD
| (Insert,Read, Update,Delete to SQL DB) and persistence, done by DAO.
| DAO is an interface.
| The interface could be, inside of the DAO and not known to bean
| (formBean), implemented inside of the DAO a few different ways.
| You could have a DAO implementation using EJB or Castor or Jakrta OJB,
| or RowSet (I use RowSet).
Have you had much luck with RowSet? I check the Sun forums and everyone
complains. I think it's an awesome framework, but the sun
implementation is really lacking, features such as createCopy, or
createShared don't work well if at all in testing what they "say" it
will do.
RowSet does work with JSTL, so I'm thinking about standardizing RowSet
with my application as the Model Bean to use with my pages.

| If you have an interface, such as DAO pattern, you could change the

| So ... make your persistance/CRUD and interface.
|
| This lets you change how it does CRUD. You should be able to switch
from
| JDO to EJB or OJB to RowSet/ResulSet.
|
| If you have to refactor the whole application to junk EJB or JDO...
that
| would not be great. A simple interface would do ya.
