Re: JSTL and Struts-el

[Mark Lowe]

Has this "easier to use" premiss been run past any folks with good 
markup skills, but aren't programmers as such? Seems to me the only 
folks who are saying this is "easier" lean more toward the programming 
end of the spectrum than formatting folks.  Ummmmm the burden of using 
"expert groups".

Hi everyone,

it's quite a long time that I am not monitoring the struts-user list 
any
more...Last time was about three months ago. One of my project's new
entry
asked me why don't we use JSTL and Struts-el instead of taglibs and
Struts
tags...Well, last time I posted on this list I asked Craig if the time
was
mature for JSTL and I've been suggested that it would be better to 
wait
as
JSTL were in their beta-release.

Two questions:

1) Is now the time to use JSTL? Could we continue to use Struts tags
without
for it loosing in performance?
Yes, JSTL is now finalized and you can/should use it in your apps.  The
JSTL tags will perform much faster than Struts' tags because containers
can optimize the generated code for JSTL.  You'll also gain improved
development performance as the JSTL tags are more powerful and easier 
to
use.

2) WHAT IS IT Strus-el?
Struts-EL is a Struts taglib that allows you to use powerful JSTL
Expression Language (EL) statements for the attribute values.
