I have made a simple Wizard "framework" for an app that I am building. It
is basically a State Machine with a WW2 specific adaptor. It may be useful
as a starting point. It is composed of :
Wizard abstract class
- contains isFinishEnabled(), isNextEnabled(), next(), previous() etc.
WizardPage interface - contains getView(), getName(), getDescription(), getImage()
BasicWizardPage class - bean implementation of WizardPage
WizardAction abstract class - retrieves and stores Wizard in the session and pushes its buttons. - implements ModelDriven
wizard.jsp page - displays the appropriate buttons and 'includes' the content pane.
The WizardAction is WW2 specific but the Wizard functionality is not. The
wizard is stored in the session (not using an interceptor currently). It
could be easily extended to use a workflow engine to determine the allowed
state changes.
Is a Jira issue the right place to put the code? What happened to that WW
extensions project?

I am interested in hearing how people are building wizards in WW2/XW.
I have looked at and used the ScopeInterceptor that is in
OpenSymphony's Jira, but it is cumbersome for anything more than 2 or 3
steps.
Here are the issues I see: - Ensuring visitors execute the steps in the appropriate order - Being able to return to a previously executed steps - Storing state between action executions. Is it appropriate tying this to the http session, and therefore, tying the action to the web? - Any others?
