Hi,

U r right!!! Moving to struts will be really moving to true MVC...
I'm right now making some servlets struts compatible, just have to move the
business logic to some java class from the servlet, add appropriate action
class and update the config file... it works and is worth doing that....

Hi anthony..
  thanks for the response.. our project is currently using MVC architecture
its just that we dont have a "controller" per say... but we have the JSPs
taking care of the GUI and the servlets doing the business logic.. 
   i think that moving to struts will give us the advantage of truly moving
to MVC arch. 
any comments ..suggestions on this one..
vik

I think, without a doubt, the best advice is to try building a Struts
application from scratch.  You might find that it's easier to add aspects of
your existing JSP application to the Struts application, or maybe it'll be
easier to go the other way.  But either way, knowing where everything goes,
and why, is very important.

Likely, you'll find that functionality exists in the JSP application that
doesn't belong in the same place in the Struts counterpart.  Separating the
Model and Control from the View can be like pulling teeth if the team is
used the other way.

I'm facing the same problem with one project.  It was started in February,
and has gone to present with the *intention* to move into Struts.  No such
luck.  The team was resistant because they didn't understand it.

I recently told them to try their hand at designing their own project from
scratch, and presto: They understand the point of Struts now ... at least
some of it.

Another problem is that you need some class writers who like to say out of
the HTML yet offer flexible functionality in the form of taglib and beans.
I took on that task in our project because I detest UI, and this keeps my
hands clean.  So far, I'm way ahead of the UI team, but I'm sure they'll
catch up quickly.

Subject: struts with jboss problems


I recently switched to the JBoss app server and have been slowly been
redeploying my struts application on it.  I finally got my ejbs deployed and
my web application deployed, BUT whenever I click on a link that is supposed
to trigger a struts action, this is what I get.

2001-06-28 11:11:30 - Ctx( /SecureExWeb ): 500 R( /SecureExWeb +
/servicemanager.do + null) No action instance for path /servicemanager could
be created.

This application used to work on suns reference j2ee server beta 2.  Thanks
for any help.
