RE: Which framework I should use ?

["Clapham, Paul" <pclapham@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Not everybody wants servlets that allow users to maintain specific fields in
specific tables.  But if you do, there is probably some code somewhere that
automates that (it's not very hard using JDBC).  (We don't use DFU in our
operating environment and so we wouldn't use a servlet that allows arbitrary
updates to a table either.)

A lot of the other things in your list sound like tasks for AS/400 security
-- such as who can access a table, who can update it.  I believe that recent
releases of OS/400 even allow for column-level security (or is that coming
soon?).  I wouldn't bother duplicating that in my servlets, I'd leave the
security to the AS/400.

Hope this helps a little.

Hi Jo, thanks for your reply.

I know how to setup the Webserver to work with servlets and JSP.
But my question is:

Is it nessecery that everyone has to write servlets which do
- the Userlogin
- the User and Usergroup administration
   - Username, Password
   - which "links" are shown on left side (If you have a frame there)
   - which tables he/she is able to select/insert/update/delete
   - which Fields he/she is able to see/edit
- standard maintenance of tables (insert/read/write/delete) from a HTML-page
- ...

maybe you now better what kind of stuff is all needed.
