SelectMethod=Cursor

MS SQL JDBC SelectMethod problem. So, have to delve into the book's code and make them close a transaction before they start another one. Very naughty of them. But this blows my fuse and am thinking of heading off for a bike ride.

So I added SelectMethod=Cursor; to the JDBC info in the web.xml and it worked. Cool that Tomcat autoupdates when you change that file.

Homegrown JSP

So, home alone and taking the opportunity to looking Java and JSP. I want to create a "framework" for prototyping database form frontends. Need security/LDAP validation. Probably a fruitless task as far as work goes, but I am compelled anyway.

So, it is the JSP book that seems to have the most direct example of what I am looking for. So that seems to mean taglibs and Beans.

Last night, I got the Chapter 12 database example to run. So, now back to the authentication. I am using all the bad developer things like a single database connection, not a connection pool, and descriptors on the web.xml file, not LDAP authentication.
