Beehive's goal is to make J2EE programming easier by building a simple object model on J2EE and Struts. Using
the new JSR-175 annotations, Beehive reduces the coding necessary for J2EE. The initial Beehive project has
three pieces.
NetUI: An annotation-driven web application programming framework that is built atop Struts. NetUI centralizes
navigation logic, state, metadata, and exception handling in a single encapsulated and reusable Page Flow
Controller class. In addition, NetUI provides a set of JSP tags for rendering HTML / XHTML and higher-level UI
constructs such as data grids and trees and has first-class integration with JavaServer Faces and Struts.
Controls: A lightweight, metadata-driven component framework for building that reduces the complexity of being a
client of enterprise resources. Controls provide a unified client abstraction that can be implemented to access
a diverse set of enterprise resources using a single configuration model.
In addition, Beehive includes a set of system controls that are abstractions for low-level J2EE resource APIs
such as EJB, JMS, JDBC, and web services.

This is a (barely) maintained fork of beehive that still works with modern java, for legacy applications that still need beehive. You should NEVER use this in a new application, please use Spring or anything else.
Whether you use this or not, I recommend JdbcMapper as a drop-in, modern, safe replacement for beehive JdbcControls.
