I've created my own custom look that removes the edit and inspect
actions on a list page in favour of using a pagecontroller. I
subclassed the erdcontrollerbutton to redo the list of actions as an
unordered list of list suitable for css styling and it works well.
I didn't then need to have direct actions so I left it at that. I need
sessions so component actions work perfectly.
My (naive) suggested answer (without trying it) is to use a dedicated
d2w list page subclass remove all actions in favour of buttons that
use direct actions.....

Greetings Anjo and Dave,
It does answer the question. Ouch.
For one paper, I can use D2W with the session based components to
demonstrate the point and test the business logic.
The D2JC route that Dave is suggesting may be a useful solution.
The size of this database may be a prohibitive factor. In this
case, what I would need the D2JC app to do is literally read
information out of the ugly database , organize the data in a pretty
way, and copy the data into the pretty database. Does D2JC allow
for console type applications? In this case, it would be nice to
use it in conjunction with a cluster/ grid.
A D2JC lesson would definitely be nice. I hear that Northern
Virginia is having such a thing coming up next Tuesday. If we
could work the iChat telecom, we could probably work that.
In any case, if I get this working it would make one heck of a
success story for the WO community.
Thank you,

I have a question on this thread. In the case of a read-only
part of D2W, is there a way to force all actions to be "Direct
Actions" to avoid the session driven "Component Actions"?
Short answer: No. The component action redirector does something
different. When you use it, you still have /wo/ urls, but when the
page they are on will have a direct action url.
The long answer is: you need to create a lot of property level
components and a lot of pages. Each time you create a link or
button, you will need to. If you want to do this, you can avoid the
actual /wo/ url. But you *will* need a session for D2W to work. So
at the least, you need setStoresSessionInCookies(true).
In this case, I happen to have a fairly gross application where
the database is relational only in the sense that it is stored in
a MySQL database. It has no keys of any kind (primary, foreign
or skeleton). The only reason to make this app is basically to
access a legacy database and supply the means to translate its
data to a cleanly devise scheme with appropriate keys and relations.
Not sure how this relates to your question?
Cheers, Anjo
