Hi:

In JSF do we have something similar to Plugin interface in Struts where we can initialize resources,set values in context during application start -up.Thank you for your responses.

Thanks

Hi All:

We are building an application using JSF,Hibernate,and EJB3 and would like to implement the best practices out there in our project.Following are some design related qts.

We have two screens Create Order and View Order.As the names indicate Create Order screen lets the user place an order and View Order screen lets the admin view the orders.View Order screen has some actions/functionality specific to the admin.Should we use the same backing bean for both the screens or separate it out by having a OrderBean,and extending OrderBean to have CreateOrderBean and EditOrderBean.???

Is it a good practice to use the ORM objects in the JSF pages directly?Would it lead to tight coupling b/w the UI layer the and the DB layer.(Scenario:When the admin searches for the orders we iterate through the order objects and display them in a table).

Thank you for your responses.

Hi Mark:

Thanks for your reply.I have many-to-many on both the sides.

Thanks

Hi:

I have a many-to-many mapping between entities course and student with many-to-many table named as student_course.Class student has a getter/setter for the collection of course(s) and vice versa.When I update student after removing a course from the collection(collection of courses) in class student,i see that the following queries are executed on student_course table:
(eg:a student had 3 courses and 1 course is removed from the collection)

delete from student_course where student_id =?
insert into student_course values(?,?)
insert into student_course values(?,?)

Why is there a deletion of all the records and then insertion of two records for the records that are remaining in the collection?Is there a way to delete only the record that was removed from the collection instead of deleting all the courses related to the student ?

Thanks for all your responses!!!

Hi:

I am exploring the option of having autocomplete feature for a text field(username).
Scenario:Type username partially and select the user.On selecting the user his/her address should be populated.

Questions/Concerns regarding the above scenario:
1)There are around 15,000 users.Is it possible to have an autocomplete feature with the size of the data that we are dealing with?

Any ideas or solutions to handle the above mentioned scenario is greatly appreciated.Thank you all for your responses!!!

Thanks,

Hi All:

I have a jsp page created which has tabbed menus .I am using Struts-Menu .
As soon as the user logs into the application the user sees the tabs on all the jsp pages that the user naviagetes..

To have the tabs on all the jsp pages ,do I need to create a jsp page with just the tabs and include them in all the jsp pages of the application which means lot of code duplication OR do I need to use some templates for all the jsp pages like Struts Tiles.

Currently I have the path provided to different jsp pages in the "page" attribute of the "Menu" tag .Is it possible to trigger an action handler by clicking on the tabs ???

Also,can anyone guide to me the struts-menu documentation.??

What are the alternatives to Struts-Menu ???

Thanks ,

Thanks
