Detailed Description

An interface bean-class for the JSP-pages to gain access into the database. This class works as a middle entity between the actual database communicator (class DBAccess) and the JSP page. Since JSP can only communicate with classes that obey the bean model (assuming were using JSTL and EL instead of JSP scriplets, as recommended in JSP 2.0 specification), we need a middle entity like this. This arrangement makes it possible to truly separate the view from the model (see "MVC architecture" and "Java Model 2 architecture").

Member Data Documentation

int com.forum.nokia.taskmanager.beans.UserBean.smsListSize = -1 [package]

Retrieving the list of users to be sent an SMS requires two function invocations. For that reason we need a member variable to store data between the invocations.
