This looks pretty cool. It looks like I can implement the same deal without generics too, no?
I'm using the following DAO implementation for hibernate, which
I'd like to share on this forum to get other people opinions.
It is using java 5.0 generics and is based on the code found at
http://www.ericburke.com/blog/2004/11/h ... ava-5.html with the difference that id class is also parameterized.
Basically when creating your own DAO you usually only need to write
finder methods
Here is an example of using this generic DAO class
Code:
public class CategoryDAO extends GenericDAO<Category, Long> {
public CategoryDAO() {
super(Category.class, Long.class);
}
public List<Category> getRootCategories() {
return get(Expression.isNull("parentCategory"));
}
}
Please, let know what do you think of this approach.
Thanks a lot
