What is added value of this framework ?
      #14512 - 01/04/05 05:03 PM

From the examples I cannot figure out which problems this framework is solving, which are not already solved by other packages.
For example Jakarta Commons DBUtils does handle database actions in virtually the same way as this framework.
Also, what purpose does it have to get an array of errors from a validation ?
Do you want to display these errors on a Swing or web form ?
And then have the end-user figure out what this is all about ?
Validation should be done BEFORE you pass on the data to database routines, not the other way around.
Even if the data types are correct there are also things like:
- cross validation
- value ranges

What is the added value in converting values in an intermediate class, as this validation is done by the database server anyway ?
Furthermore I did not see an example about navigation of table records, which was touted as one of features of the framework.
