It seems to me that there is a very fine line between what a ‘Resolver’ does and a ‘Factory’. Is there an official definition of these terms (and of course other similar terms) so that we use them...

Thanks for the suggestion of using JNDI to hold it - I'll give that a try.

I'm also going to try using the ContextSingletonBeanFactoryLocator in my EJB class and see if I can configure that class...

I'm using Sybase EAServer, but there is what I believe to be the equivalent. EAServer has a server wide class class loader that should make shared classes available to all EJBs etc, but it isn't the...

I am trying set set up an ApplicationContext that holds common beans used server wide, such as code table definitions and language translations. We need the ability to dynamically refresh these beans...

Yeah - that post was a bit out of control wasn't it. I didn't really know where to start when writing it either, but there are a lot of details that I think are really important on real systems that...

I would like to start a discussion about the business tier, including the business domain models and validation rules (business rules). This discussion is not...

Thanks - this looks like exactly what I was looking for...

I have seen references to the fact that rules-based validation may be added to Spring. (Rob Harrop's book ProSpring mentions this for one). Does this exist yet?

Specifically, we are looking to...

I also think that there is an opportunity to use Spring WebFlow (or at least these concepts) for the navigation portion of a rich client application. This makes sense, especially if we carefully...

I think the above is an example of the code telling us that something is wrong. In an earlier post to this thread I said

I think that this happens a lot with command objects, probably because...

Yup - that sounds very familiar. We are doing similar things with security privaleges and complex business rules driving the navigation, as I suspect all business applications are. Our navigation...

Thanks. This is exactly what I was looking for...

I don't see an 'Architecture Discussion' forum specifically for the Spring Rich Client project. There seems to be a few of us that are interested in looking at the internal architecture of Spring...

Reg,

I really like the ideas and concepts in your post… and it is never too late for good ideas. I just spent a week with Keith Donald to explore the possibility of using Spring Rich Client...
