Developer's Quarterdeck Log

After doing some work today in our DAO (Data Access Objects) I was reminded why so many people are trying to create that perfect persistence solution. Coding JDBC-SQL by hand just seems so barbaric. Every other class is clean and easy to read and then you look at DAO and it is huge. We have it to the point with reuse it isn't so bad to add to it but still, I know that some day a better persistence solution should be implemented. So on my long term to-do list is to experiment with some things like hibernate and CMP.
