I've read this article:

http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/ja...enericdao.html

many times and believe I understand what it is saying. However, it is 4 years old and I have a JPA compliant Java application to contend with now. In addition, I see that there is a JPATemplate in Spring that has some good functionality, but the Spring documentation says it is already deprecated!

Can anybody point me to an example of a solid, modern, JPA compliant, Spring based, working example of a "GenericDAOImpl" that proxies an Interface to provide generic finder execution -- like the one in the IBM article does?
