Maya, you should try http://www.codefutures.com/products/firestorm/. They have an evaluation
version. Firestorm DAO generates the classes needed for diferent implementations. If you or your
company cannot afford the price of the professional version, you can at least try the evaluation
version to see how they implement a DAO.
Once you have the code, you can use Spring's dependency injection to get rid of the factorys.
It is really easy to adapt the generated code to use iBatis or Hibernate, plus Spring also offers
support for this O-R mappers.
