Data Binding in Lazlo - Lessons for JDNC
Hans Muller looks at Data Binding in Lazlo - Lessons for JDNC . He concludes that " data binding systems that bury the natural syntax for specifying bindings with abstractions can be more trouble than they're worth. If I'm binding to JavaBeans then strings using the usual "bean.property" expression language notation are a nice way to specify bindings. Similarly, if you're binding to an XML document, then an XPath expression is a natural way to define a component's data source. "
