Hi all,
My boss doesn't want to use Struts EL because as he puts it "it's not part of
the main development and we can't tell where it might go". Can anyone clarify
when and if it is going to take over ? everyone seems to be using it and I've
used it in two projects (which didn't make my boss happy!)
The only reason it might appear to "not be part of the main development" is that Struts has a defined minimum requirement of Servlet 2.2/JSP 1.1 and the JSP EL was not introduced until Servlet 2.3/JSP 1.2. If Struts is to maintain compatibility with JSP 1.1, it can't require that people use Struts EL
That said, a review of the mailing list archives will make it clear that among Struts committers who have expressed an opinion, all of them see the Struts EL tags as "the future."
Tell your boss that the best way to tell where an open source project will go is to become an active participant in the development community!
Joe
