<property name="dataSourc e"><ref local="XXXXXX"/></property>
<property name="mappingRe sources">

</bean>

<!-- Spring-based persistence dao implementation -->
<bean id="persistence Dao" class="ca.gc.ec .dmf.persistenc e.PersistenceDa oSpringImpl">

Depends on what they are being used for. You tell us, it's your code so I guess you are supposed to know that more than us.

Depends on what they are being used for. You tell us, it's your code so I guess you are supposed to know that more than us.

Look in the J2EE specification. They are an enterprise-wide way of developing java classes that easier to deploy over the web and appServers. They are generic with a similar structure. From the few encounters that I have had with them they are a robust architecture with security, transaction monitoring etc. and have various other advantages.

It's a whole big paradigm (Session, Entity and Message Beans) and I have to agree with 'r0'. We can only assisst if u tell us where u are using them and how they are failing to meet what you want.
