Aug 6, 2012 at 11:12 comment added weston Thanks, I think this is a sensible way forward. It's refactoring the project to how it should have been done in the first place WRT to persistence, then it's a simpler step to change DB, and later replace the business logic if required from a recriutment point of view.
Aug 6, 2012 at 10:53 comment added superM Since you've determined to re-write the project, and you've alreadt faced the difficulty of modifying a lot of files to access the DB correctly, I suggest you do this once again and forget about it forever. You'll have to change those files anyway
Aug 6, 2012 at 10:50 comment added weston I like the idea, but I think introducing an intermdiate layer would mean modifiying the 90% of 756 files/classes that access the db. A large proportion of the files (150 or so) probably do nothing but manage db tables, so I guess these files would sit in the legacy db implementation module.
