There are several features I think they are going to be the potential source to advance Struts:
* The Hyper Form Bean - The string version of a form bean become unnecessary. A hyper form bean allows you to model simple data, like a test form, a survey form, or a bug reporting form, etc. It is called the level one model. * The Hyper Action Wizard - A primary wizard can spawn many child wizards, called spawned wizards. The CRUD operations can be performed on the spawned wizards. Further more, each spawned wizard can spawn many child wizards and perform CRUD operations on their children. There is no limit for the nested level. The Ant Project Configuration demo shows this capability. * The MVC visual model - all Carrier or Struts related attributes become *meta-data* in Oracle database. These concepts are described as the level one MVC. The designers just *program* these meta-data for their web applications. I observed some Struts developers *dreamed* such visual model, but no one get it yet, at least in the formal products. * The research on the level two MVC will begin soon. For example, the spawned wizards could be in a different application module from their parent wizards in the current design. I am seeking ISVs to help me model how we make a spawned wizards in different web sites. So an end user starts one wizard with many spawned wizards in different web sites. Once he/she completes the wizard, the business data is sent to a single-contact agent (This will also lead to the concepts of level two Carrier Orbits ...)
