Well, I can always discuss specific questions you have about my real-world implementation with Struts... I even teach Struts as part of the "Advanced JSP" module in our J2EE course, where we show real-world examples of its usage.
I probably will pop some of our examples online at some point in the next month or so (on codenotes.com probably, maybe some on this list)... Ideally I'd like to open up parts of the codenotes.com codebase to the public as a case study of how to write a content management system in Struts... but that's not my final decision. :) Cheers Stu -----Original Message----- From: Mark Galbreath [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, January 17, 2002 8:06 PM To: Struts Users Mailing List Subject: Re: Things that use Struts I am part of a development team that just made the decision (last week) to use Struts as the core servlet container technology for VoiceStream's new ecommerce intra/extranet website. I am having trouble getting practical advice/tutorials on exact implementation, but so far, Struts is performing incredibly in our development environment! We are developing a shopping cart app that must meet the requirement of 1000 simultaneous users. Our J2EE app is JRun (it sucks, but it's comparatively inexpensive), server is Apache on Unix. We are using EJBs as the model to an Oracle 8i database. I think real-world applications stories discussed here would help immeasurably in light of the absence of good tutorials at Jakarta. Cheers!
