I´m using Struts 1.2.8 with Hibernate 3.0.5 and I´m doubt with some concept 
designs for ORM with MVC:

    A Hibernate session get's instantiated in my DAO constructor (Model). Later 
on, the JSP (View) catches the Hibernate persisted objects populated in the 
request or session by the Controller and shows the data.

    Question is:

    If I close Hibernate session in the Model, before the View, as by default 
the objects are lazy-instantiated, that is, the data would be retrieved from DB 
when it´s accessed, the JSP complains that session is closed.

    Besides, closing the session after the View I would be breaking the MVC 
pattern.

    I'm trying to retrieve Blob objects not sucessfully, due the problem 
above... the only way would be disable lazy-instantiation??
