Cedric,
Want me to do your research for you eh? :-)
The product I pointed to is an example of an MVC servlet/JSP model that
encourages the use of business logic in Java and only the view element as
required in JSP. It is created by the Jakarta - Apache project - which is
responsible for Tomcat I know, but you must not judge one by the other.
You may not want the so called "plug", but given that even Sun recognise
that MVC is the best architecture for developing web applications (in most
cases), Struts is a good (but far from perfect) example of this kind of
architecture. It helps create maintainable web applications - I would read
the J2EE Blueprints document if you wanted any more information (but don't
use their example of the Pet Store as it is dire and that opinion I cannot
be bothered going into).
I see so many people creating needless taglibs - SQL taglibs for example to
use SQL queries in their JSP code - I mean, how unmaintainable is that???
EJB taglibs I only see as another example of an unnecessary taglib, your
business logic code should be in Java, not in JSPs. I have experienced this,
I have seen both sides, I have had to understand and maintain and migrate
some pretty bad JSP pages!
If anything, it will spark the imagination of how to solve MVC web
application problems better - there is an article in the JDJ (I think?)
about an organisation that started from struts and altered it to fit their
needs. Fine idea IMHO.
