    <p>I'm writing an application consisting of a gui interface, a client, a server and a database.</p> <p>However, after countless hours I still haven't figured out how to organize it all. </p> <p>The GUI is built up by several rather different swing components, so I thought about having a separate model for each of them.</p> <p>The information flow is currently like this:</p> <ol> <li>User inserts some info in the GUI. </li> <li>GUI tells the controller something happened by giving the controller an event. </li> <li>Controller sends the event to the server </li> <li>Server evaluates the event and sends the appropriate query to the DB.</li> <li>Results from the DB are then attached to the event, and sent back to the client.</li> <li>Controller picks up the event and updates the appropriate model with the new information</li> <li>The model then updates the corresponding view.</li> </ol> <p>A possible scenario could be the user searching for entries through the GUI, and having the results returned.</p> <p>Does this architecture sound sane at all?</p> <p>Should all the different views have their own model? If yes, should they have their own controller as well? If no, then what?</p> <p>I thought about sending the entire model to the server, and having the server manipulating the information in the model, then send it back to the client. When the client then receives it, the controller makes sure the new model info is getting attached to the view. This solution eliminates the need for separate events classes, but it doesn't seem right to do this.</p> <p>I guess what I'm asking is what is the best way to organize a server/client/db application following the MVC-pattern?</p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
