It's in the parancoe-core module. At present there is a limitation on the JPA implementation to use: it must be Hibernate. In parancoe-core the most part is the persistence DAO feature. Another interesting part is the support to unit-testing the persistence-related code. I know a person that is using parancoe-core in a Swing application. I'm working our next release of Parancoe (2.0), an I'm evaluating to isolate the DAO feature in a specific module with minimal dependencies. Yes, it’s possible. It’s in the parancoe-core module.

Especially when the system creates a prepared statement. @Fabrizio: Yes, this the way I think is a good idea. Especially when the system creates a prepared statement.

To me it's the best approach if you like expressive method names, compiler safety and would like to avoid boilerplate code.
