I am working on a data collection web app using jboss seam/ejb3. The app in question will collect workforce/employment information about an individual. Now, for 1 individual there could be as many as 400 elements collected. What would be the best way to model an entity bean for that situation? Note that it would be fairly easy to logically group the elements by categories such as demographics, past employment, education, etc. All i know at this point is that an entity with ~400 getter/setter doesnt sound like the best way to approach the issue. Any help/suggestion will be greatly appreciated. View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=4048560#...
