Peter,
A flexible solution to the problem would be to have the code in a method
such as this:
/**
* getMaxValues - returns the n highest values from a the xyz.someField
database table
* @param n - the number of values to return
* @return a Collection of the n highest values in the xyz.someField
database table
*/
public Collection getMaxValues(int n) {
.
.
.
}
You would also consider putting this in a DAO class that returns other
values from the database
Regards,
Richard
