Who wants these frameworks combined? This is what has been killing Struts. This is anything but a lofty goal. It is architectural suicide. There is Shale, which could not really do this. Why is that not enough or in fact way too much? This is ridiculous. I hope people on this list see this

Don, this is *very* interesting. Nice work. I've been wondering for a while if we could reuse off-the-shelf JSF components. It looks like you may have figured out how! It also proves that you can think of the JSF lifecycle as a more complex, higher level of abstraction of our interceptor

I am not opposed to having JSF and Action2 work together. If they can play together, and you can find a business case to parts of each in a project, I think that's a big win. As long as they can still be used separately, then I am +1. --- Bob Lee [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Don, this is *very*

A bit of a tangential question here... does Webwork support inheritance of some sort with regard to Action mappings? Or perhaps some sort of prototype? I think it's great that you can set things on a per-mapping basis, that makes things very flexible and powerful... but one can imagine where

You can inherit packages and their defined defaults. Therefore, in this case, you could define the default interceptor stack and result type for a root package then not have to specify it in any action configs of that package or child packages. Don Frank W. Zammetti wrote: A bit of a

In the Action 2 approach, you should be able to use any feature of Shale, or any other JSF extension, that doesn't involve a custom NavigationHandler, since that is overridden to defer to Action 2-style navigation, or a custom Lifecycle. By leaving JSF alone otherwise, you should be able to
