It's not about DAO per se. It's about patterns on which Spring built.

Lot's of fun and a very good message.

Since u posted in a Spring forum, I guess u would like to know about implementing a DAO layer using Spring. Have a look at this great tutorial by Mark Fischer on designing a DAO layer using JPA and Spring.

Cheers.
