BeanShield - Project |
Description |
BeanShield is a powerful Java library, that makes it easy to directly use your
complex entity model in your UI (Web based and Client) without the need to copy
or clone data to be able to rollback changes when a user clicks "Cancel".
Typical data management user interfaces make it necessary to support revertable
units of work. That means you will have to provide a solution to restore a
certain entity (ie. bean) state whenever the user clicks "Cancel". Usually you
will have to copy or clone your entity data to be able to implement this.
With BeanShield there is no need to copy or clone any data. BeanShield uses
proxies to "shield" your beans from any user changes and only modifies the
underlying beans when you tell it to commit the changes. It is even possible to
nest BeanShield sessions, so you can easily build complex user interfaces with
nested edit dialogs.
Just think of BeanShield as a means to have nested transactions for your beans
in memory. |
