Hi,

A) May I know whats the need to use JPA when Hibernate exists in order to develop Broadleaf ?

I felt people should have developed it completely using Hibernate itself.. (I mean instead of using JPA tags, why not use either Hibernate tags or annotations?) Any reason for it?

The reason I asked because, Iam not aware of JPA :?


B) Inorder to extend the existing functionality of Broadleaf, do we need to know all Broadleaf entities, daos, services, controllers etc..?


C) What're the Spring Modules have been used in Broadlife?

Waiitng quick response!


Thanks,
Gill
