What i usually do is add a private attribute to my ASO with the object
id and let a getter method in the ASO retrieve the whole object from the
database when needed. It would look something like:
public class MyAso implements Serializable
{
private Long _loggedUserId;
public User getLoggedUser()
{
return getUserDao().getUser(_loggedUserId);
}
}
Cheers

I am currently developing a small-ish web application using tapestry &
trails, and was hoping someone might give an opinion on a design issue:
I have a userAccount object, which has collections of objects
associated with it in hibernate. What this means is that I need to
have the hibernate id of the userAccount object for the user currently
logged in (because it would be inappropriate to make them select it
from a list of all accounts on the system)... What is the best way of
achieving this?
Because the userAccount Object would potentially get quite large,
would a good solution be as follows:
1. Create a small CrucialInfo object and store the id of the account
(along with anything else i havent thought of yet) in this
2. Store that object using hivemind as a session state object
3. Inject the CrucialInfo object into the appropriate pages
4. Read the accountId from the injected CrucialInfo object just before
child objects are persisted to the database
Trails has the concept of of a defaultEdit page... assuming the above
solution is good, is reflection a good way to store that accountId
value into a (always the same) field on the objects, essentially by
extending the org.trails.EditPage?
Thanks
