Hi all,
I'm a developer on the sourceforge xpetstore project which aims to
show how to develop a full J2EE app with open source tools. We
have currently developed a front end using struts that talks to a 
back end implemented in EJB. This is all done with the aid of xdoclet.
 
Now we're trying to show an alternative. We want to use webwork for the
frontend and replace ejbs with hybernate. We want to continue to use
xdoclet for this.
 
However I'm a complete newbie to webwork and having read the documentation
I'm still getting a bit confused.

Firstly, using xdoclet all you can build the views.properties file.
 
This file seems to contain actions and associated views, for example:
 
# Action views
myaction.action="">myaction.success=success.jsp
myaction.error=error.jsp
myaction.input=input.jsp
 
myaction.add.action="">myaction.add.success=success2.jsp
myaction.add.error=error.jsp
myaction.cmd2.action="">myaction.cmd2.success=success3.jsp
myaction.cmd2.error=cmd2_error.jsp
 
So this file seems to define all that is needed. Is this the case? Do
I still need the actions.xml file? Do I need to tell some other config
file that all I need is the views.propeties file?
 
thanks very much,
Brian
