I'm going to get started on the RESTful MailReader this morning, but the SmartURLs one is here right now, * http://sq1-struts2.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/articles/smart-urls/ * http://groups.google.com/group/sq1-struts2/web/smarturls-mailreader.war and I've asked Brian about moving the source to the GoogleCode site. The major change would probably be the "SEO compatible" URLs where a "hello-world" action URI maps to an Action class named either * HelloWorld * HelloWorldAction * hello-world/Index * or the package default (ActionSupport) but I would like to make that * HelloWorld * HelloWorldAction * hello-world/Index * hello!world (world method on hello.class) * or the package default (ActionSupport) If searches for an Action are being restricted to the packages/hierarchies we specify, then we might also consider supporting POJO Actions without an "Action" suffix. In fact, I'd like to support POJO Actions without an "execute" method :) On the result side, it's the same or similar, "success" maps to a result named either * hello-world-success * or hello-world but I would like to make that * hello-world-success * success * or hello-world with the usual local-package, default-package, global-result search pattern at each bullet. There's also the annotations, but that seems like a separate concern. The only actual problems I had with SmartURLs was redirecting to another namespace. * http://code.google.com/p/smarturls-s2/issues/detail?id=17 and overriding a heuristic URL with a declarative URL * http://code.google.com/p/smarturls-s2/issues/detail?id=18 One minor glitch with the default SEO URLs is that "-" can't be used in a JavaScript identifier (since it looks like an expression). But, that's really a problem with the way we generate JavaScript IDs from the URI. For now, I'm off to clone the SmartURLs MailReader and have at it. -Ted. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
