Not exactly. I dont want the changes propagated to the database, but
propagated to to Torque objects. I think most of the constraint checking and
general logic should go in a subclass of the Torque classes. Then, the GUI
construction is pretty strait forward :
- - copy values from Torque Object
- - let the user edit them (copy from the components -> Torque object)
- - check the values and correct them (copy from Torque -> components)
- - save to the database
That's quite a lot of code (I'm very lazzy) just to handle the copy to/from
the torque objects, handle the references correctly, ... That seems all like
very common operations in a data oriented application, so i was hoping to
find a ready to use solution ...
Taken from an MVC view, my GUI form is the View, the Base Toqure Object
implements the model and a subclass of that object implements the Controller.
So the Model and Controller are "merged" but that's quite usual in Swing.
I dont really understand why I would not want that ... But I'm ready to
change my mind if it seems logical ...
OK, I'm going to code some, and try to apply the ideas you've just given
me ...
