Hi list, I am the modest author of a small taglib lamely called "beandisplaytag". It is probably currently only used by me and my colleagues from work, and emerged from the need to have a mean to simply display java beans on web pages without hassle. We were pretty much used to using displaytag to display our collections and were then annoyed when we had to display simple beans (say a "customer") in a table, with odd/even colouring, etc. I first started the project thinking it would probably share some code with displaytag, but in the end it's just so much simpler that I didn't feel the need for that.
The point of my email here is that this taglib is currently part of the "berkano" project. [2]Even though berkano is not a very lively project, I pick it up every now and then, as needs arise. And it is *totally* unrelated to beandisplaytag. (It's main focus is on user management). Beandisplaytag is there basically because it was easier at the time for me, as I needed a place to host it. So, to the point now, I'd like to check and see if there's any interest here for this project. I'm about to drop it off berkano, and either create a separate project for it on sf (I doubt it'd make it to the codehaus by itself), or maybe try to find a project which would like to incorporate it. It is in a very usable form right now, afaict. It's been written test-first, is consisting of a mere 13 classes and also has a couple of "extensions" for webwork users. (i.e it can use the webwork i18n system for instance). Source code is browseable at [3]. I only just realized documentation is totally lacking. I'm pretty sure I had some more extensive doc and sample usages which I'll try to dig up asap. Please let me know if you guys would be interested and/or if you have any question or suggestion :) Cheers, greg [1] http://berkano.codehaus.org/Berkano+Beandisplaytag [2] http://berkano.codehaus.org/ [3] http://svn.berkano.codehaus.org/browse/berkano/berkano/trunk/berkano-tools/beandisplaytag ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.
