Like all mailing lists on sf.net, the mail archive support there sucks... I've had better luck with mail-archive.com, which is also archiving the list, I think... > > 2) Struts has integration points to JSF (Java Server Faces). > Does WebWork2 plan on having any integration with JSF? We do plan on having the same sort of thing, enabling Xwork Actions to be the Actions backing JSF. I have it assigned to me, but I haven't really seen enough JSF interest to make it a priority pre 2.0 release... > > BTW I got interested in WebWork after I read "Java Open > Source Programming". Great book! Good job Mike. Good to see some positive reviews ;-) I liked reviewing some of the chapters, and thought they provided very sound and straightforward advice and ways of developing apps. > > Things I like about WebWork, actions have no direct knowledge > of the Servlet API.

Xwork IoC is nice for simple apps because you don't have to create new meta-data for every Action, it just figures out the dependencies based on the Interfaces implemented. That said, it starts to hold you back as your applications become more complicated, which is why our integrations with both Picocontainer and Spring are important. > > > > ------------------------------------------------------- > This SF.net email is sponsored by: Perforce Software. > Perforce is the Fast Software Configuration Management System > offering advanced branching capabilities and atomic changes > on 50+ platforms.
