Jacob, Perhaps I'm just a big idiot, or perhaps I don't have enough time in the day to fully explore this whole idea, but I'm still having the same problem I had last time we discussed this issue: "huh?" I don't _get it_ and I won't really until someone can pony up and at least provide some bas

My entire thoughts on the EL-API thing is this: I only care about using the EL API if I get the additional tool support. IDEA, for example, does some decent code completion when you do ${ ... } in a JSP. It doesn't, on the other hand, do anything useful when I type or use %{ ... } in another We

Wasn't there an agreement that the tangents would indicate what they were in posts, like [SHALE] or [JSF]. It is difficult enough around here to figure out what is going on without this sort of discussion going on as if it were struts. On 4/10/06, Craig McClanahan <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > O

Great, it sounds like there's an overlap of ideas here :-) Fundamentally, my approach to JSF 2.0 is to continue the CoR patterns with the various application handlers, while sticking to the 5 phases of MVC, allowing other interceptors to provide intermediate processing within those 5 distinct p

Sorry, I should be more clear when discussing EL. An Expression Language or EL is a concept I think we all agree is a good thing. Implementations of EL include JSP 2.0, JSF 1.0, the Unified EL, OGNL, Jexl, JXPath, and many others. Struts 1.x used a poor man's EL through Beanutils, which lack
