Re: JSF vs. Struts
I consider the "JSF-is-hopeless" megaphone to be hype also. :) I really do think JSF has great potential, especially as tools vendors latch onto it. What I object to is the "JSF-is-here-Struts-is-dead" hype. My personal belief is that JSF itself -- the technology that was described in David's article -- will succeed mainly in the view tier. In my opinion, it is not the best option for a comprehensive app framework... but then again, a benefit of it being consummately pluggable is that it can integrate with other technologies. Including Struts or other controller frameworks. ...Classic and Shale can be healthier together than apart. +1 BTW, there's been some blurring of the distinction between Shale and JSF (a distinction which does exist for now ;) ). I'm talking about JSF alone here, as was the "Top Ten Reasons..." article. I think that Shale, while it can't be trumpeted as a Standard the way JSF is, adds enormous value to JSF. Rich p.s. In some ways, JSF is a direct competitor to ASPX in ASP.NET, which is still figuring out the whole navigational-controller thing. In the rare event that I imagine myself to be on a "side", in a "battle", I consider myself to be on the side that contains JSF+Struts+Shale, looking across the field at ASP.NET. :) And even then, I'm only on that side because I want the more community-driven ecosystem to prevail.

Re: JSF vs. Struts
Hmm... I'm just about to post a reply to that entry. Basically, I feel that although JSF itself can be great view-tier technology, it isn't really a full replacement for Struts. JSF+Shale *is* a replacement for Struts, but I think that's a point which is often lost. An interesting thing about Struts Ti is that it would treat JSF as a first-class view tier without depending on it for anything else. That may or may not turn out to be important, but it does keep JSF as a peer to other view technologies, rather than at the core. I don't think JSF and Struts are incompatible, as long as JSF is being used as a (powerful) view. Intra-page event handling works fine with something like Struts. When the other more general-framework-type functionality is used, there's a conflict. In general, I agree with the sentiment that there's a lot of hype in this arena, and not all of it is easily backed up. But the Struts community has always been a bit hype-adverse, no?

Zammetti [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, August 11, 2005 8:44 AM To: Struts Developers List Subject: Re: JSF vs. Struts I personally think all this exploration is a Very Good Thing(tm). There are a vast number of different ideas out there as to how a modern application framework should be built. Mistakes have been made over the years, lessons have been learned, but we don't all agree on what the mistakes were or what the lessons are! If that sounds bad to anyone, it isn't. It's quite the opposite and is the only way healthy debate and ultimately progress is made. At some point we're going to have to all weed out the options that don't quite measure up, and that will happen via simple market forces (the market in this case being mostly developer mind share), but I don't think that time is now, so the more experimentation, the better. I for one am not willing to declare one thing better than another... I regret having done that in the past prematurely, and certainly not in a manner I'm especially proud of. So, I'm certainly not going to make the same mistake twice. I'm still not sold on JSF, that much has not changed. I do however think there is some decent ideas underpinning it, which is also the case for many of the other frameworks and approaches out there, so declaring JSF or anything else for that matter a failure now is probably not fair either. I do think Jack's point about JSF being around for a while and not really setting the world on fire is fair, although that doesn't mean it has failed, just that it's going a little slower than hoped. My take on JSF is simply this: we'll see. I'm not sold yet, but I'm not willing to say I never will be. As for Shale, I'm not sure I understand why Rod or anyone says that Struts and JSF are not compatible... if the thinking is that the result will be quite a bit different from Struts as we know it today, then I suppose he might be right. That to me doesn't make them incompatible though. From what I have seen of JSF, and what I know of Struts, I can conceive of ways they could be fit together. I haven't had a chance to get into Shale yet, but I have no doubt many of those ideas, and many more I haven't thought of, are present. Why they are incompatible I just don't get, and I don't care who is making the claim, no matter how well-respected they are, I need to see some real, concrete examples before I'm convinced. Struts Ti looks pretty interesting... many of the ideas that were described here a few days ago were quite good in my mind. Should it be the future of Struts? I don't know yet, and I'm not even sure those developing it would be willing to say that at this juncture. It's another possible path, another exploration of possibilities, and that's good. One thing is for sure: most of us look back on the way we developed applications just five years ago and wonder why we ever did things that way. I have absolutely no doubt we'll be doing the same thing in another five years. I too would like to see less hype sometimes, but promoting ones' ideas is human nature. If you think you have a compelling answer, or even the One True Answer, you tell people about it and try and convince them. That's hype.

Re: JSF vs. Struts
ploring different aspects of web development. Of course, there will be Struts classic still for a long time to come which will continue to forego active development. I think Struts is realizing there is no "one way" when it comes to web development. If a particular project or approach interests you, join in.

Re: JSF vs. Struts
I have to agree personally with Rod Johnson "J2EE without EJBs", Spring framework architect, etc., when he says that Shale is merely a stopgap and that Struts as we know it is simply incompatible with JSF. That seems fairly obvious and I find it hard to believe that anyone familiar with the issues would think any differently. I personally would not hire anyone would thought differently, whether they like JSF or not. JSF is not new. JSF has been around forever, so it cannot be the cutting edge. If it is cutting, it is the "cutting middle" and almost the "cutting tailend". The JSF idea has been around even longer with all sorts of frameworks which I personally think do it better. Indeed, I think it fair to say that one of the main architects of the JSF framework has said as much but has to feed his family. Certainly, if you like JSF, knock yourself out. Love it to death. I don't care. I only care about giving people that ask a fair evaluation of the product without the hype.

Re: JSF vs. Struts
I figured it was something like that :) Would have been a bit of a bombshell to drop matter-of-factly otherwise :) I'm reminded of a scene from Babylon 5 where Londo and Vir are conspiring to kill the emperor and they are talking about after they poison him, depending on how fast the poison acts, he might have time to stumble into his guards and say "Londo killed me!"... then again, he might be all delirious and yell out "KILL LONDO!" instead :) So, forgo vs. undergo... not QUITE as big a mistake :) Frank Don Brown wrote: Haha, no I meant "undergo", darn it :) Don Frank W.

Re: JSF vs. Struts
Quick correction: Struts is _not_ forking in any sense of the word. Struts Ti is a sandbox project several of us are working on as an exploration of a simplified framework more like Ruby on Rails than JSF. It has not been accepted as a Struts subproject, just as Shale has not been accepted as "Struts 2.0". The Struts project is currently in, what I would call, a state of exploration. In addition to Shale and Ti, there are other projects like Struts Overdrive, Struts Flow, etc., which are also exploring different aspects of web development. Of course, there will be Struts classic still for a long time to come which will continue to forego active development. I think Struts is realizing there is no "one way" when it comes to web development. If a particular project or approach interests you, join in. Personally, I think shale will be a great success building on the strong JSF framework, and if it meets your needs, give it a shot.

RE: JSF vs Struts
Just checking if there was anything in the works for a JSF implementation within Apache... I've already contributed a complete re-write of the EL parser to Sun's JSF-RI, but the stuff I did elsewhere in my JSF implementation is a lot different than what I've seen in both MyFaces and in JSF-RI. Such as in the way I handle config loading, action URL resolution, valid XHTML Renderkits, NIO character encoding/decoding, etc. Basically I've been looking for another avenue to contribute a more complete solution to the JSF API without intruding on an existing projects and the way they've tackled the same problems.
