How sure can you be that tomorrow will not lead to a request for a third, fourth,... UI ??? OK XP means code as little as possible too early... but if you have two UI's you should cater for the third, because the second already calls for the isolation-layer.
just my 2cents Alexander Jesse -----Original Message----- From: Keith Bacon [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Freitag, 8. Februar 2002 17:42 To: Struts Users Mailing List Subject: Re: actions and business logic I agree. Is it worthwhile adding a facade layer if you only have 1 or 2 different user interfaces? I can see the value if a change to business logic requires dozens of GUI changes. Also if you are writing a UI for a part of a complex system it's a way of the owners of the system presenting you with a restricted/simplified interface. For workflow some people seem to want to specify it with tags on the jsp, but I prefer (as you say) to do it in the action class. The jsp page is concerned with display/capturing data job not where it's going to or coming from. These insights into how othe people things are fascinating & valuable - more please!
