One thing we would need is a quick performance test between the existing
Java code and the JS just to make sure we're not grossly decreasing
performance. IMO, some decrease in performance would be fine to gain a
common code base. I've recently ported some Java code to use JS in Rhino
and it was a relatively easy line for line conversion :-). Overall I've
been very impressed with Rhino so I'm looking forward to using it more and
more.
If we had a Rhino based validation option in Commons Validator, we could
potentially remove the validwhen and requiredif validations in Struts.
While they're quite useful, I always have to lookup the docs to remember
how to configure them correctly. Having a more flexible JS option would
be easier.
