David Winterfeldt is a Struts committer, and donated his code to the Apache Software Foundation.
Since, like the Digester, et al, it is a generally useful package, it is now being moved to the Jakarta Commons. We had parked it in the contrib for a time, while we discussed the future direction of framework extensions. The Tiles package is also to be proposed to Taglibs, and moved there if accepted (: which I think it would be :). The Mapper is also a very capable package. It also provides for conversions/transformations of properties, where the Validator does not. Meanwhile, the Mapper does not provide client-side Javascript validation the way the Validator does. I believe some people use both. Emmanuel's contribution is relatively recent, and is similar to David's. -- Ted Husted, Husted dot Com, Fairport NY USA. -- Building Java web applications with Struts. -- Tel +1 585 737-3463. -- Web http://www.husted.com/struts/ James Young wrote: > > I am looking for a validation framework used with > Struts.
