I am wondering if anyone could assist me in resources for working with databases?
As a newbie, I've went through book and tutorial examples covering form submission and page rendering in Tapestry. YAY! But now I am ready (I think) to dive into database access. But a quick search on this topic frightens me a more than a bit. Or, rather, lack of step by step instructions on how to get this to work. I hear hand waving about Spring integration but I cannot find someone who has created a tutorial on how to do this. So, can anyone recommend a good starting point? I've used iBATIS and Hibernate in "simple servlets". So I'm familiar with both of them. It's the Tapestry hooks to these persistence systems that confuse me to no end. I know jack about Spring. I know about the same for Hivemind (other than I know Tapestry uses it for version 4). Do I need to be a guru in Spring and/or Hivemind to access a database within Tapestry? Wowsers, I'm willing to do that but that seems like a lot of work just to get to the point of accessing a database from within Tapestry. I would greatly appreciate advice on where a newbie could start to educate himself about accessing a database with Tapestry. I want to put the work in. So I'm not asking for spoon fed help. But I don't know where to look for this information (or even what I should be searching for). Web links, books, emails. I'll take any help that you can offer. I also looked through the nabble archives of tapestry-user but didn't see anything I could make heads or tails of. I did look on the Tapestry project website but I didn't see anything titled "using Hibernate with Tapestry' or "using iBatis with Tapestry". If suh links exist, I wouldn't be offended by a RTFM followed by a link to this online resource :) Thanks for any advice that you can share with me. - Damian --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
