My latest venture is with a company that is I currently work for the Texas Comptroller and previously a contractor for many years. We're still using rusty old Struts 1 on websphere and have used Spring for some projects. I use Stripes for all my prototyping and an internal app. JSR-303 We've found the spec to be somewhat limiting and inflexible. We have been using Oval with good success as a validation framework. Flexible, easily extendible. Here's my view on Spring (when i first found it 5 years ago, i thought it was the coolest thing evah!) It has excellent documentation. Its a container. If you already have a container and services, there are parts that are redundant. You think, Oh cool! I can have a service interface, and have Spring inject the implementation at runtime! Awesome! Problem is, I only ever have the same implementation. So I have an XML file (or annotations, same thing) that adds a layer of complexity for what 90% of the time should be obvious. yeah. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Create and publish websites with WebMatrix Use the most popular FREE web apps or write code yourself; WebMatrix provides all the features you need to develop and publish your website. http://p.sf.net/sfu/ms-webmatrix-sf _______________________________________________ Stripes-users mailing list Stripes-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/stripes-users
