Now available from Cambridge University Press:
Java Frameworks and Components: Accelerate Your Web Application Development
by Michael Nash
Struts is covered in Chapter 5 as well as in the Case Study section.
This is a book for web-application developers using or considering frameworks
Ted:
I've been experimenting with a way of doing mappings from normal URL's to
Action URI's, and wonder if it's the right approach. If so, I'd be happy to
drop it in for inclusion in a release when/if appropriate, or set it up as
an optional-add on.
I took the simple approach, and added a
Cody:
Any and all ideas on how we can make the Expresso doc better *really* will
be listened to! Honest! :-)
It always lags the code, I think that's the nature of the beast, but the
core group are very serious about making the doc as high-quality as the
code. We've just upgraded to allow all
Stephen:
Just to answer your question below, it is definitely the core group's
intention with Expresso to upgrade with Struts, and workflow is one of the
new features we've very much looking forward to.

Which brings up another point, will Expresso upgrade in step with
Struts? If the
Bill:
You shouldn't lose a thing by using Struts/Expresso in combination, as we've
incorporated the entire Struts framework into Expresso. On the flip side,
you would gain a powerful object/relational mapping layer, background job
queuing/scheduling, auto-generated UI's for prototyping, XML UI
Dave:
I see Peter has already replied, but just to add a few quick thoughts to his
reply:
I am curious and I am starting on Struts. I have a query. Since
Expresso v4
is incorporating Struts into its framework, does it nesssarily
mean that it
is better?
Depends on the Job at hand - as
Gary
(and all):
This
is exactly the kind of issue that led us to integrate Struts with Expresso (our
OSS app framework) - we had addressed the issue of packaging components and
their interaction with Expresso, so I guess we were coming at the problem from
the other direction :-)
Bryan:
I'm new to struts and have a couple questions about FormBeans.
By way of example of a technique that doesn't require formbeans, but still
maintains many of their advantanges, you might want to check out how we've
integrated Struts into our OSS framework, Expresso. Expresso uses a
Kent:
I think it really depends on your requirements and the skill level of your
developers. I personally would be careful about trying to learn
and combine
two frameworks, even if they serve two different purposes.
Actually, the combining is already done - we have Struts 1.0 fully
Hello all:
I just spent an hour chasing down a silly mistake, and was wondering if
there were a way to prevent it:
logic:present name=something/
pOk, it's here!/p
/logic:present
and
logic:present name=something/
pNo, not here!/p
/logic:present
Will display:
Ok, it's here!
No, not here!

Jim:
One of our contributors has just recently integrated Cactus with our
framework, and Struts components can be tested that way as well, and we've
used Junit for some time too. You may find some useful code for what you're
doing that way... I know he did a lot of work getting the
Jonathan:
Another approach you may want to look at is the way we've done the Struts
integration with our own OSS framework, Expresso: We subclass Action in
our Controller class, and the Controller class actually does all of the
authentication/authorization work for us.
There of course more to
Jon, Tom:
You might want to check out what we're doing in Expresso
(www.jcorporate.com) for user security. We're in the process of integrating
Struts as one of the front-end/UI choices available for Expresso apps, and
the models are pretty compatible.
