Town
Hi,
What exactly is this "Town" and why it's better than JDBC? Where can I find
more about it?
Thanks in advance,
deacon Marcus

I'd be happy to see town ditched in favour of JDBC, if there was
comprehensive enough config.
put it this way, id like to set up seperate tables for each kind of
repository, and might like to be able to map real field
names onto the name of their contents, EG:
<jdbcrepository name="users" db="james" table="users">
<field fieldname="ident" contents="password">
<connection file="blah>"

Torque/Peer's are defined in a .xml file and Java code is generated to
manage the connections and communicate with the database.

Straight JDBC wouldn't be that good, IMO; you'd be tempted to use SQL
statements that are server spesific.
IMHO, it would be great if James could be set like Tomcat; ie: column
names on the tables can be reconfigured via an XML config file. I'd also
like to attach "listeners" to the JDBC connection, so that on
insert/update/delete on the tables I'd have a chance to do something. It
would be great to be able to record the from/to addresses on a separate
table, for example. Could be useful, on back-end servers that don't
(yet) support triggers.

'Town' may well be replaced in the next release.
Either with straight JDBC or with the Torque/Peer OR tools from
jakarta-turbine.

town is an Object-Relational mapping which creates classes from "create
Table" like statements and uses jdbc for connection. Here is their URL
