RE: [OS-webwork] Views.properties - to deprecate or not

2002-11-04 Thread Jason Carreira
I created a JIRA issue for multiple config files at
http://jira.opensymphony.com/secure/ViewIssue.jspa?key=WW-82

+1 for deprecating views.properties. Multiple configuration methods make
webwork more confusing, not less

I don't particularly like actions.xml, and I really like the simplicity
of views.properties. I find it much easier to read.

I'm ambivalent about deprecating views.properties only because it is a
bitch to maintain in a multi-user environment. At early stages in a
project, it is a heavily edited file that CVS doesn't always play well
with. The upside of actions.xml is the ability to separate the file out
into multiple XML documents and aggregate them in actions.cml using the
XML entity format.

 Hey all,

 OK - let me see if I can boil this issue down to simplicity.


 Should we deprecate views.properties?


 In my view, it should be deprecated - ie it will still work, but will 
 no longer be documented or referred to.
 - actions.xml is a far simpler format to read
 - anyone using J2EE MUST understand XML configuration files by now 
 already
 - maintaining two 'default' view configuration mechanisms can only
confuse
 new users.

 +1 from me.

Is it possible to have these feature polls in JIRA? If not, then would
you go ahead and implement it, :-)?
