abbreviation for some sort of new Aliens vs. Predator movie.

We're all sadistic after all. At Tiles 2 we changed DTDs and tag

2007-04-27 Thread Chris Pratt

I have recently begun the learning curve from Struts 1 to Struts 2, and
since WebWork in Action is really the only game in town, it's definitely
worth the read.  There is a lot of package and library conversions that you
have to do to get the examples working on Struts 2, and some of the concepts
have advanced since the book was written, but the information is still
relevant, and at this point, I would add it to the suggested reading list of
anyone starting up the Struts 2 Learning Curve.
 (*Chris*)

P.S.  Any chance of Struts 2 in Action (i.e. WWiA v2) any time soon?  Seems
like the time is ripe.
