Hello,  
        Any reason of why you can't use DTOs?
Your domain objects and dto could implement the same interface..

Subject: slightly [OT] Hibernate and domain objects in web apps

Hi,

I have got a little problem with Hibernate - well actually it is only 
partially related to it:

My app uses Spring + Hibernate (lazy loading), but should I return the 
value beans (dom) from Hibernate to my Struts actions? If I do this, I'd 
have to deal with LazyInitializationExceptions for collections that have 
been lazy-loaded. In my opinion, this would be a horrible design because 
the view would have to know about the data access tier. On the other 
hand, I've read, that "DTOs are evil" - but how can I solve this problem 
without DTOs?

I am sure, lots of you are using 
Hibernate/{YOUR_LIST_OF_OTHER_GREAT_FRAMEWORKS_HERE}/Struts and I'd be 
grateful for any help.

Thanks,
Tom
