I am pretty new to struts, but I have taken a look at Camino and Struts Console.
Struts Console and Camino take completely different approaches to the problem of creating/maintaining a Struts application. With Struts Console you must maintain the Action classes and ActionForms on your own. It only manages the struts-config.xml. If you begin your development with Camino, you can start with an HTML template of what you want your site to look like. Then use Camino's JSP wizard to convert all your JSP pages to use struts tags. Camino also has a wizard to create the form beans and action classes. So really it is a much more complete approach. Obviously you will still need to add your business logic, and other stuff that a code generator cannot do [like <logic:iterate> tags in your JSP], but it seems to do a lot of the tedious work for you. Also for me, Camino is helpful for visualizing the application [seeing the different possible scenarios the user can take]. Struts Console doesn't have anything like that...

The idea of strut-config.xml, actionservlet, actionbean, actionform sometimes confused me much. Two nice struts GUI tools seems providing the solution. I've found 'struts console' does only strut-config.xml. http://www.ejcenter.com/struts/ How good is Camino on the action java files ? Is there any comparison. Is there any struts course in the states ?
