[ANNOUNCE] Tapestry 4.0-beta-1
The first beta release of Tapestry 4.0 is now available. Tapestry is a component based web application framework that provides lots of functionality with minimal Java coding, and creates an environment that supports high levels of reuse. Tapestry 4.0 represents a significant advance over Tapestry 3.0. A few of our favorite changes in 4.0: * The new 4.0 specification DTDs have been simplified. * The syntax used for binding parameters inside an HTML template and inside an XML specification is now consistent. Both make use of the binding prefixes. * Friendly URLs (that is, URLs that pack more information into the path and less into query parameters) are built in. This makes it easy to divide your application across many folders (reducing clutter), and leverage J2EE declarative security along the way. * Listener methods are much easier and more flexible; listener parameters in the URL are automatically mapped to listener method parameters, and listener methods can return the page name or page instance to activate. * Component parameters now just work, without having to worry about direction. * Applications can now have a global message catalog, in addition to per-page and per-component message catalogs. Messages not found in the component message catalog are searched for in the application catalog. * Full, native support for developing JSR-168 Portlets has been added. * Tapestry 4.0 makes much less use of reflection and OGNL than Tapestry 3.0; partly because there are many new binding prefixes and largely because of how parameters are now implemented. * HiveMind services and Spring beans to be directly injected into page and component classes. * Tapestry 4.0 includes optional JDK 1.5 annotation support (but Tapestry still works with JDK 1.3). * Tapestry 4.0 debuts a new and much more sophisticated user input validation subsystem. Thanks Paul! * Line precise error reporting can now display the contents of files containing errors. * Forms can now be canceled, bypassing client-side validation logic, and invoking an alternate listener on the server-side. * You are no longer limited to just Global and Visit; you can have as many application state objects as you like. * The use of HiveMind under the covers means that Tapestry can be easily customized to fit your needs. * Page properties can now be persisted on the client, as well as in the session. * Components and component parameters can now be marked as deprecated. Component parameters may have aliases (used when renaming a parameter). The complete list of changes is almost too numerous to enumerate. Suffice to say, everything is about getting more bang for the buck; reducing the amount of Java code, reducing the complexity of templates, and simplifying (or eliminating) XML files. Tapestry is distributed as a combined binary/source distribution, and a seperate documentation distribution.

Re: Name for commons-like area for web
Hi! Web Commons Web Components For me it depends how fine grained those components are. Say, if there is a project which cummulates all filters for a servlet container I am for web commons as it might result in project sizes we have in commons. If we manage (what I prefer) to have much much smaller parts say a filter component to handle access control based on the ip address with hosts allow/deny rules or another simple component to have commons-validator available as tags for jsf (yes I know there is shale) I am for web components. --- Mario - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

That kind of independence is one of my goals for the Tiles integration in Shale as well. Except for the configuration interface (which is hooked in to the configuration of Shale overall, but is easily separable), the same is also true for the Dialogs part of Shale ... it has no runtime dependencies on the Shale framework classes, only on the portable JSF APIs.

Re: Name for commons-like area for web
I found this comment interesting: What about something less definite and more 'code word'? What about not having the word 'web'? 'Arctic' or 'Telsa' or something completely meaningless but catchier than 'Web .*$ I think if a proper name is choosen along these lines, the result is something better than the relatively pedestrian names currently being bandied about (not that any of them are especially bad, just a little, bland). How about something like Webementals, fusing Web and Elementals (signifying pieces that combine to form a larger whole)? I think a code word-type name is more interesting and meorable (once a person knows what its all about), but it should still have some connection to what the project is all about. The argument against of course is that you won't know at a glance what its all about. I think something clever enough can overcome this and still be a bit more exciting.

Re: Name for commons-like area for web
Hi Craig! but just wanted to note that the integration between JSF and Commons Validator in Shale is usable even if you don't buy in to the rest of the Shale architecture Yes, I know - I already use it that way (or better, I started to use it ;-). However, even if shale-core is small, if we go the Web Components direction I think even the shale-core (if it were integrated into web components) needs to be broken into more pieces. And yes, I would prefer it. I think this is an important point. Even a project like (the great) Shale might be too big to be a web component. This stuff can be reflected on the homepage by multiple projects where we have a set of committers like we have now, but this project has to release web components. Even if this project always releases all its web components at once (and thus all their jar files do have the same version number) it is possible for the user to pick its web component. The project is free to also provide a web component bundle. This should avoid somethink like we see often with commons-collections which has been grown in a way where other projects decide to copy the one Collection class needet out of it and drop the rest. On every new release this has to be done again. --- Mario - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
