+1 for Pro Spring. Soup to Nuts. Well done.

RE: Struts + Spring or Struts versus Spring
Don't know if it's appropriate to do this, but I am adding my 2c as well. I've been using Spring and Hibernate with Struts for some time now and have found it to be excellent. If you are the book type, there is a very good book on Spring from Apress titled "Pro Spring" that covers the entire framework quite well. -Original Message- From: Joe Germuska [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, March 30, 2005 9:40 AM To: Ted Husted; Struts Users Mailing List Subject: Re: Struts + Spring or Struts versus Spring In short, what Ted said.
