Basically, it wasn't loading ControllerSingletons as singletons, but as just regular controllers. I figured that this was because the isAssignable call was not working properly for some reason. I found this because the init methods weren't being called as specified, and then I traced the constructors for my ControllerSingletons and they were being called for every request.
The two main things I'm looking into are adding:
1. Form validation similar to Struts validation. I don't like the way Struts does it's validation XML, and I hate the FormBeans, but the idea is nice.
2. Functional partitioning similar to Niggle. Basically, you have your application broken out into Objects and then each object will have a set of performFoo functions to handle different actions.
None of this is necessary, just a few things I've always wanted in one cohesive easy to use framework.

What sort of problems did you have with isAssignableFrom? Creating an extra instance of the object shouldn't be a problem since this is load-time not run-time. But I'm curious to know what the issue is before I commit the patch.Out of curiosity, what are the things from other frameworks that you like? Thanks, Jeff Schnitzer [EMAIL PROTECTED]
