Hi Ashley,
I don't know what to say... I've not used D2JC myself, and only
investigated it from the perspective of distributing Cayenne
DataContext.
What I was planning for JStaple is a different story. And this is an
XML bindings layer that describes ... umm... bindings, with view that
can still be written in Java. I have an upcoming article that explains
the design in more detail. But basically I take more of a WO/Tapestry
component design approach. As it is extremely flexible, lots of other
things can be built on top of it (including fully declarative view)...
Anyway, if you are interested in discussing this in more details, I
suggest JStaple mailing list - http://objectstyle.org/jstaple/
Thanks
Andrus
