I'd like to disagree on this matter. Worst problem with struts actions is that they need to be derived from basic actions. This makes them pretty unflexible. Implementing interface would be better option ( well, you could always say that thise who "like to implement interface" may go straight to webwork ) The same problem with form beans.... > My concern would be that POJO Actions sound like a > slippery slope that > will encourage more people to write applications > with Struts, rather > than *into* Struts. What's wrong with it? I need from web framework: - handling request parameters in sane way. - dispatching to whatever action is necessary - providing support for template rendering. I definitely do not like to know anything about struts in my business logic. > Actions should be a thin adaptor between Struts and > the business-end > of an application.
