No, not really. At least, not compared to things like SSO, LDAP authentication, access control, distributed sessions, persistence, and a lot of other things Struts doesn't bake in. I know I've had to do it plenty... WW has always been, from what I've
seen, a framework that tried to have a wider scope than Struts did... for example, built-in support for DWR and Dojo, built-in support for continuations, integration with Quartz and JasperReports... all of this could be argued is out of scope for a web framework, couldn't it?
Sure it could. And I might well argue that way, for some of those examples. I
don't see PDF generation, *assuming it's a somewhat limited capability*, to be too specialized.
I do. Sorry, but it's just not in the same league as other much more common cases. -- Martin Cooper (I just saw Craig's comments as I was writing this, and if his
