excellent thx very much -----Original Message----- From: Andrew Hill [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, July 14, 2003 12:30 PM To: Struts Users Mailing List Subject: RE: debate over Struts vs other frameworks
Velocity is a view rendering technology, not a web framework. It works quite well with struts and there is an excellent introduction to its use in a struts app in Teds book (struts in action) - well worth a look. (One of the advantages of struts is that you can use pretty much any (web) view technology you want with it - not just limited to JSP) The others I dont know much about, though I could suggest two more to add to your list while your there: Barracuda (a 'competitor' of struts - with a highly developed event model and DOM based rendering via XMLC) ,and Expresso (a framework which inludes struts - and a lot more!) You may also want to read up on JSF - a spec which though not ready yet will be the 'next big thing' as far as writing web based applications goes. Struts already has a JSF integration library thinghy - and it is no coincidence that the spec lead for JSF is the same guy who gave us struts (ie: Craig Mc Clanahan - aka "papa struts"). :-) -----Original Message----- From: Butt, Dudley [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, 14 July 2003 17:42 To: 'Struts Users Mailing List' Subject: RE: debate over Struts vs other frameworks : ) i like what i hear so far.. umm, well, there's quite a few...Velocity/Webwork/Turbine/Tapestry/Maverick -----Original Message----- From: Andrew Hill [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, July 14, 2003 11:03 AM To: Struts Users Mailing List Subject: RE: debate over Struts vs other frameworks Struts good Others bad ...hehe ;-> Really it all depends on what you want to get out of your framework... Perhaps if you name some frameworks you are comparing it with then people in the list with experience in both can give some specific strength and weakness comparisons. -----Original Message----- From: Butt, Dudley [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, 14 July 2003 16:34 To: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' Subject: debate over Struts vs other frameworks Hi all, I know this must be a topic of discussion that has raged on for a long time, but i'm throwing it out there again, what u say people?
