We're okay on our own and don't plan on joining any umbrella project in the foreseeable future. Actually if I understand it right, the integration is quite trivial. We have a Model2-compliant view servlet bundled into the core distribution. It lets templates access request, session, and servlet context attributes. It also lets templates use any JSP taglib present in the webapp. Therefore it is pretty much a drop-in replacement for JSP as far as WebWork is concerned. Is there anything else codewise that should be done for integration? (My feeling is that there isn't, but please correct me if there are some gotchas). I guess all it takes is adding another chapter to WebWork documentation that shows how to set up FreeMarker's built-in view servlet in the build.xml and maybe a small example. I can prepare this documentation if you're willing to place it into the "Supported Views" chapter. Cheers, Attila. > > /Rickard [EMAIL PROTECTED] Senselogic Got blog?
