Forum OpenACS Q&A: Response to ACS data model --> from J2EE application?

Collapse
Posted by john menke on
I have been looking at the OpenCMS project.  It is based on Java but is not exactly what I am looking for.

All I really want to do is use the data model in an MVC application where I already have existing solutions for the View and Controller - (Struts and JSTL)  We have developed a DAO layer to access database that works nicely with our View and Controller segments.

Going to back to what I remember from Arsigita - it was the data model that was supposed to be core of the ACS..

Maybe this doesn't make sense... but I'm hoping that using the Data Model alone will help me...  does this make sense to anyone else or do you think I would be better off designing my own data model.
