I am using Hibernate to retrieve information from DB (I have several implemented DAO classes). The information retrieved is stored in Java POJOs. In order to integrate with Struts I have 2 choices: 1. Implement a model structure where I save all the information needed from application. 2. Retrieve the information needed using DAO classes which will access the DB. Do you have any other suggestions. I am going to use a mix of these 2 solutions. That is, each application transaction will hold its temporary model which will be discarded after the end of the transaction in order to be used from all the action and JSP classes Everything else is kept in DB. chipix --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
