I actually didn't notice that the "I" was in front of it. I don't prefix my interfaces with the letter I... the implementation of the interface just happened to use iBatis. ;) Heh… I actually didn’t notice that the “I” was in front of it.

I've never been a fan of using ActiveRecord in java though... always feels dirty. And all I would be doing is hardwiring the calls to the dao directly within the domain object, or passing the dao interface in via a constructor or setter. Either way, I've always it's a violation of SRP to include both data store access and domain logic in the same entity. ;) Well, it’s as simple as you’re going to get in java.

You have a class named like an interface with a bunch of SqlMapClientTemplates? Wouldn't real simplicity be: Motorist m = new Motorist(3); m.ChangeSomething("Blah"); m.Save(); ? (Just sad I can't rib you all in person anymore) Cory Oh, that’s supposed to be simple? You have a class named like an interface with a bunch of SqlMapClientTemplates?

Wouldn’t real simplicity be:

Motorist m = new Motorist(3);
m.ChangeSomething(”Blah”);
m.Save();

?

I have been going through the Spring In Action book today, basically covering the chapters on persistence and transactions. I am really liking Spring/Hibernate3 annotations. ;) Yep… if not simpler.

But Hibernate/Spring is just as simple. You have hidden the complexity in the XML file ;-) But yeah, it is simpler than hard coding it into the Java code. But Hibernate/Spring is just as simple.
