Yes, note that I am actually not the best qualified person to answer this.
Now, it's obviously a valid question that Struts developers should
answer. They decided to abandon work on Struts 1.x and bring Webwork
over here and work on that. So they really should be the ones to answer
your question. However, one gets the sense that they don't want to
answer such questions....
I keep seeing posts claiming Struts Action/Classic is technically old
etc etc; is there a resource available summarizing how exactly this is
true?
It did not take me long using google to find the following page:
http://wiki.opensymphony.com/display/WW/Comparison+to+Struts
Of course, that list was surely worked up by the Webwork people and is
thus, not from an unbiased source. Still, I would suppose that the
points there are truthful.
In any case, the fact is that the Struts developers have decided that
they prefer to move the Webwork code over here and work on that, so they
have accepted that Webwork is better. I think that has to be taken at
face value, since, you'd think that most people in their situation would
prefer to have a tooth extracted rather than accept that their work is
inferior. But that is what happened.
