Have you considered using apache maven? I mean, it sort of builds up a dependency graph for you, based on the artifacts you want. That being said, in today's world of loose coupling, most of these libraries work together through interfaces and such so that you can pretty much pick and choose which versions you want. I am currently using Struts 2.1.6, Spring 2.5.6 and whatever the latest versions of hibernate's JPA implementation was in early May. As far as the choice between 2.1 and 2.0 for Struts, I would suggest going with 2.1 if you are starting a new app. New plugins, etc. are likely to be built against 2.1, so you will be doing yourself a favor by starting with 2.1. -Wes -- Wes Wannemacher Author - Struts 2 In Practice Includes coverage of Struts 2.1, Spring, JPA, JQuery, Sitemesh and more http://www.manning.com/wannemacher --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: user-unsubscr...@struts.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: user-h...@struts.apache.org
