how to keep code open with WebLogic Workshop

J

James McCabe

Hello,

I was wondering if anyone has had successful experiences creating
multilayered architectures which make use of WebLogic Workshop but also
let your code stay reasonably open. I am fairly new to Workshop, and I
can see it provides a lot of useful stuff, and lets you wire controls
together, but the problem is that you are left with tons of controlled
code that has @jpf tags, etc. scattered throughout it.

That's fine for some, but what if you want to have a body of
independent business logic, and you want to encapsulate the
WebLogic-specific code away? What are the best practices for getting
managed code and non-managed code to play nice together? For instance,
what if you want to be able to create and use custom Java controls from
POJOs?

Does anybody know of some really good docs on this? The docs from BEA
seem to encourage vendor lock-in, and published books tend to tell you
the capabilities of Workshop without really addressing the wider
architectural implications.

Any advice much appreciated,
James

Can you spell 'Vendor Lock-In'? Of course you can, I just spelled it.
