Internet fora are an environment ripe for misinterpretation, so I will clarify I'm not trying to show off here. But I would remind you that JavaRanch's primary goal is "to help beginners (green horns) learn how to do things themselves" (see this), so where I could have just done as you state I judged it (hopefully) more helpful in the long run to try to get Jothi to think a little about the question they had asked, particularaly as my answer would be an opinion that could be digested in an unqualified way. I suppose I see topics here as a discussion, rather than a simple question/answer.
Now, I don't want you to think I'm piqued here, but I might also point out that there is no obligation on me (or any of the other unpaid volunteers here) to answer any questions posted. Please remember that we ask all participants to BeNice, so I will bear in mind your comments on my response to try to avboid misunderstandings in future and I hope you bear in mind mine next time you post on JavaRanch.
Please avoid future outbursts. They help no one.Ajeeth Kumar wrote:Hence the outburst.

Agree that javaranch is NotACodeMill, but your posting was rather curt(atleast I thought so) . When people start posting questions here, I assume that they had done some ground work and are now looking for help in the form of quick answers to get them out of some tight situation . I was myself looking at answering some questions on how to effectively use hibernate formulas to retrieve a logical(but fake ) column and how to use the basic DB relationship to imply P-C relationships across multiple levels of hierarchy using Criteria. Hence the outburst.
