Re: Stored procedure (RFI proposal)

I was actually dealing with a similar problem yesterday; I wanted to write a
tag that called not a stored procedure, but several SQL statements in a row,
using a dataSource, just like I would use for <sql:xxxx> tags.  After
looking through the source code, I noticed that the abstract classes
org.apache.taglibs.standard.tag.common.sql.QueryTagSupport and
org.apache.taglibs.standard.tag.common.sql.UpdateTagSupport both used the
exact same code to access a data source.  So, I was wondering if in future
versions of the tag library, we could have an abstract tag that extended
BodyTagSupport and did all the work of getting the dataSource and database
connection, and then QueryTagSupport and UpdateTagSupport (I didn't look at
TransactionTagSupport that closely, but I'm assuming it does something
similar) could inherit from that class, as could any other tags that would,
say, call multiple SQL statements or call a stored proc using a JSTL
dataSource.  Since I haven't looked at the source code for the standard
taglibs under Tomcat 5-alpha, I don't know if this idea would still be
compatible with the newer code, but if it is, I think it would be useful.
Just an idea!  Thanks,

Of course... data access in a presentation view is bad practice, much 
better to unit test a bean (with DAO, such as iBatis.com) in an MVC way.
Then you can reuse you bean for Soap, etc., not just JSP and keep your 
JSP code clean.

Re: Stored procedure (RFI proposal)

Do you mean you want to batch commands, the way the
java.sql.Statement.addBatch allows you to?  That would
be useful to lots of people, I'll bet.  I think that
would require tag changes, too.  

I can see a <sql:batch> tag that could have multiple
<sql:update> children.  Do they do such a thing in
Jakarta's DBTags taglib? - MOD
