[Springframework-developer] Re: Petclinic demo app prototype

[Rod J. <rod...@in...>]

Thanks Ken. This looks like a nice example. The fact that the code is so
simple tends to show that Spring does what it claims!

It would be good to use the JdbcTemplate at least once for a query / update.
This is an important part of the API.

"Stage D & later" - ???, suggestions wanted; JNDI, internationalization
support, support for reference data in AbstractFormController,
AbstractWizardFormController, simple transactions, non-JSP views,
authentication/authorization, fancier display pages possibly with a
header/footer/menu and maybe a stylesheet, etc.

Transaction support: we'd need to come up with a requirement,  and show the
TransactionTemplate and the AOP declarative approach. I have an example of
the declarative approach, which I'll send when I'm accessing the net over
something faster than my mobile phone.

A Hibernate version of the present demo might be interesting to do later, as
well, showing the new Hibernate integration.

Regards,
Rod
