Re: AW: Design patterns used in Struts

[Janne Mattila]

Well, original poster asked the question for some reason. Who knows, maybe 
he has to give a presentation of Struts? I wouldn't like to embarrass myself 
by speaking of patterns that do not exist. Have a look at some random books 
on the subject, I'll bet they all talk about Model 1, Model 2, and MVC and 
none about MVC1 and MVC2. As does "art of web development", by the way, at 
least according to the table of contents (I have not actually read that 
book). I think the reviewer was just confused. I am not sure whether MVC2 
has been said to be the XML extension of MVC1, can you please provide some 
links (or did you just pull that one out of your hat :) ?

The whole point of patterns is to create a common language for describing 
universal solutions. If you start to speak of MVC1 and MVC2 patterns, 
majority of people will not understand what you are talking about. That is 
why I care about precise nomenclature in this matter, and you should too...

I think you have some confusion of terms there....
MVC = a general (non-JSP specific) architectural Model-View-Controller 
pattern
Model1 and Model2 = models (or patterns) for implementing web applications 
with JSP technology. Model2 implements the MVC pattern.

Sorry,
but what is MVC2?
There is no such pattern by Gamma :-)
And I've never heard of an MVC2 paradigma...
Or do you mean Model2?
Google "*MVC2 java"

Some suggest that MVC2 is the XML extension of MVC1.  Who care about the 
precise nomenclature at this point?
