Tue enough, although I must say I had no problems plugging Spring in using the Spring integration jar. Very quick and painless.
I think that use of Hivemind is required when one needs to extend or enhance or add new functionality to Tapestry itself. Certainly one could also use Hivemind as a configuration engine for other non-Tapestry services, but it isn't actually required for that purpose. I don't mind Hivemind as an IoC container, but I have found it more difficult to grok than Spring. -Scott On Sunday 25 June 2006 11:34, James Carman wrote: > That being said, Scott, it *is* much easier to "plug in" to Tapestry using > HiveMind, since Tapestry itself is wired together using HiveMind. > > -----Original Message----- > From: Scott Russell [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Saturday, June 24, 2006 8:41 PM > To: users@tapestry.apache.org > Subject: Re: Tapestry 3 to 4.1 to 5 > > I'm guessing you mean Hivemind, not Hibernate. > > Hibernate is an ORM that is completely independant of Tapestry.
