Add a generalized utililty class to expose information to non-JSP presentation systems

           Summary: Add a generalized utililty class to expose information
                    to non-JSP presentation systems
           Product: Struts
           Version: Unknown
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Enhancement
          Priority: Other
         Component: Utilities
        AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
        ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED]


Per the discussion RE Velocity Tools for Struts and the duplication of code in
RequestUtils for alternative presentation systems, I am proposing the following
enhancement to the struts code base, which will allow the internal configuration
information of Struts to be exposed while minimizing the dependencies that have
to be written into presentation systems like Velocity Tools for Struts.

There was a suggestion (by T. Husted) that RequestUtils is really aimed at the
JSP layer, and after reviewing that interface, I agree that it is not the best
place to put this feature. I would suggest o.a.s.util.ViewUtils or something
similar. This RequestUtils class will end up needing some minor enhancement,
such as adding another overloaded entry into computeURL() that doesn't require a
PageContext.

I plan to do an in-depth analysis of the tag libraries and general configuration
systems of struts to come up with a general interface for ViewUtils, which I
will add to this entry as soon as I'm done.

Any suggestions as to what should be in this interface are more than welcome.
