Hopefully this will help clear up what Xwork is, what Webwork is, and what is and is not in scope for each project. Xwork 1.0 Mission Statement: The Purpose: To create a generic, reusable, and extensible command pattern framework not tied to any particular usage. Features: * Flexible and customizable configuration based on a simple Configuration interface * Core command pattern framework which can be customized and extended through the use of interceptors to fit any request / response environment * Built in type conversion and action property validation using Ognl * Powerful validation framework based on runtime attributes and a validation interceptor Webwork 2.0 Mission Statement: The Purpose: To create the best Model-2 MVC web application framework supporting advanced web application development paradigms such as component based development and code reuse. Features: * Built on XWork, but customized to be specifically tailored for web application development * Custom web-specific Xwork interceptors * Flexible configuration extended from Xwork with web-specific configuration parameters * Multiple web-based views, including custom JSP taglibs, Velocity support with pre-built macros, XSLT views, and JasperReports -- Jason Carreira Technical Architect, Notiva Corp. phone: 585.240.2793 fax: 585.272.8118 email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] --- Notiva - optimizing trade relationships (tm) ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Scholarships for Techies!
