If your app is in production, then I would assume that you've QE'd it sufficiently to make it there. There are no time-bombs that will cause your app to fail because you are using a deprecated feature. There are plenty of apps in the wild currently using Struts 1.2 (and we even hear of 1.1 periodically) > Are you supporting JQuery in the future ? Javascript and its frameworks tend to move at a different pace than the java world. One of the recurring themes in Java is backward compatibility. This means that sometimes things move slower, to make sure that all angles are considered. I've started and received significant contributions to a JQuery plugin. JQuery is a better fit for us than Dojo was because it is slim, well-tested, and seems to stay mostly API compatible. There are a few design decisions being made differently with this plugin. Mostly, rather than providing a complete abstraction from Javascript, the goal will be to provide some helpful tags, but expose as much as possible. Rather than trying to fit everything into the tags, we want users to embrace and know JQuery. > I know I should be expecting only voluntary support from a open-source > project. Will the developers who are still working on DOJO support in > Struts tags suddenly stop working ? Has the bug fixing stopped ? I can say that you won't be getting any new features. Also, if progress of the core library is hindered by supporting Dojo, it is likely we'll let the Dojo plugin go. If you have a significant interest in the Dojo tags, feel free to pull down the source and make changes or contributions. A significant part of deciding to deprecate the plugin is that the original developers find it difficult to support. More than one person has attempted to upgrade it to Dojo 1.x and we often find it requires a complete re-write. Rather than do that, we've decided to go with JQuery as it has become very popular and very easy to extend. -Wes -- Wes Wannemacher Author - Struts 2 In Practice Includes coverage of Struts 2.1, Spring, JPA, JQuery, Sitemesh and more http://www.manning.com/wannemacher - To unsubscribe, e-mail: user-unsubscr...@struts.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: user-h...@struts.apache.org

Dojo is most certainly deprecated: deprecated means that support still exists, but may, or will, stop being supported at some point in the future.

It was deprecated, there is no plans to upgrade Dojo to latest version, no plans to add new Dojo futures and so on... In such case support for Dojo in Struts2 was deprecated. And code was moved to plugin to not bundle deprecated code with new Struts2 version. There still will be some bug fixing. If you plan to use it anyway, you will be on your own.

Re: Re: struts2 and dojo
Support for dojo was not deprecated!! It was bundled to a plugin and is called struts2-dojo-plugin-2.1.6.jar. You can use this tags with: <%@ taglib prefix="sx" uri="/struts-dojo-tags"%> and then use the tags with the prefix "sx"! This tags render an element on the frontend depending on which tag you use. During rendering the page, needed dojo files are loaded and parsed. So please don't say that dojo-support is deprecated. This is wrong. Dojo just has moved!!

Re: struts2 and dojo
I am using dojo 1.2.3 with struts 2. Just copy dojo library to your workspace and then you are set. However, you can not use struts dojo tag lib with it. In other words, you can not use theme="ajax", and you need to code your own javascripts to work with widgets or containers. I think it is worth it as this offers you a lot of flexibility. --- On Tue, 3/10/09, fr Rouxel wrote: > From: fr Rouxel > Subject: struts2 and dojo > To: user@struts.apache.org > Received: Tuesday, March 10, 2009, 2:44 PM > > Hi, > > how can I use dojo 0.9 or dojo 1.0 with struts2. > I think struts 2 uses dojo 0.4 ? > > thanks > -- > View this message in context: > http://www.nabble.com/struts2-and-dojo-tp22435740p22435740.html > Sent from the Struts - User mailing list archive at > Nabble.com. > > > - > To unsubscribe, e-mail: user-unsubscr...@struts.apache.org > For additional commands, e-mail: user-h...@struts.apache.org > > __ Ask a question on any topic and get answers from real people.
