Struts is already proved most useful for coming on 5 years and will continue to have <html tags for a very long time. It's the corporate standard ( one recent way of measuring
https://equinox.dev.java.net/framework-comparison/WebFrameworks.pdf
pg 21. )
It also supports many views other than JSP such as Velocity and is view agnostic.
I myself don't see that "the view has been done" but don't mind to be proved wrong.
This is a bit like jarkara logging. There is logging that comes w/ JDK, but people try it and go back to jakarta's logging. This has been happing for years and is corporate standard practice.
As far as "application controller", in my world of RiA, say Swing MVC Application, my scratch for "Struts" is a disptacher to service request coming from JDNC applications. Even w/ "appliction controller" in "Swing" I still have a use for Struts.
Jumping ahead, JSF markets well, but even if there was no Struts I do not think it's production penetration would be high relative to alternatives, but I could be wrong.
