Sample application using the Eclipse BIRT schema

Question

<p>Somaco have produced a sample application based upon the Eclipse BIRT example schema (customers, orders, products, etc). Hopefully this will be of some use to new-to-Spring developers looking for other example applications and sample applications.</p>
<p>So far we're tested/run the sample application on Tomcat, using JOTM transactions against the MySQL version of the BIRT schema. We'd like to (a) offer the sample application to those Weblogic users looking for sample applications (other than petstore), and (b) get some feedback on the sample application from Weblogic users - both for the deployment and for the app itself.</p>
<p>
The sample application uses the following Spring MVC Framework features:</p>
<ul>
<li>Various Spring controllers including: SimpleFormController, AbstractWizardFormController, and MultiActionController.</li>
<li>Validation and Custom Editors (including a CustomTimestampEditor for java.sql.Timestamp fields).</li>
<li>Clearly tiered application design with web, application and persistence tiers.</li>
<li>Ibatis/DB persistence tier using result maps, correlated result maps, dynamic and iterative map definitions.</li>
<li>Simple QBE on text fields.</li>
<li>Externalised messages (for i18n/l10n).</li>
<li>WAI-friendly page structure (e.g. CSS2 styling, use of divs, not tables).</li>
<li>Declarative JOTM transactions.</li>
</ul>
<p>The sample application was created using the Somaco Software Production service.</p>
<p>Follow the link from the Somaco home page to download the application (~4.1 MB).</p>
<p>No registration required. Feedback would be appreciated. Enjoy.</p>
<p>Cheers - John</p>
