Getting the DAO layer right isn’t as easy as one might think. Especially with stateful persistence techonlogies like Hibernate and TopLink. There is a good article on the Hibernate blog here on how to do this in Java 5. For those of us still using 1.4 at least the standard operations is good input for designing our DAOs the old way.

I did a lot of bad things when setting up Maven for my current project. I learnt a lot, and it did work in the end, but I certainly would do stuff a lot different next time around. It will probably look something like what is described in this article. 🙂
