You have any stats on how many uses Struts Dialog and how many downloads ?
My supervisor is kind of bugging me for usage stats on Struts Dialog.
I mean he wants to know name of biggie that uses this extension too.
Thanks

Stuts 1.2.9 and 1.3.1+ will include EventActionDispatcher, which is
the main asset of Struts Dialogs 2.0. See here for more discussion:
http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=38343
http://wiki.apache.org/struts/EventActionDispatcher
http://wiki.apache.org/struts/DataEntryForm
Therefore you may want to consider upgrading core Struts library and
to use Struts Dialogs 2.0 merely as a collection of sample code. You
will still need Struts Dialogs if you decide to use wizard engine.
I appreciate that you found my work useful.

The new version of Struts Dialogs library does not contain new
features. Instead, it cuts a lot of fat. Well, all of it.
The library consists of only two Struts-related classes:
EventDispatcher and ActionDispatcher. The latter is direct
copy-n-paste from Struts 1.2.7 and is included in case you use older
version of Struts (Struts 1.2.2 and higher is supported).
EventDispatcher is a ParameterListActionDispatcher with a fancier
name. You can find original class here:
http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/attachment.cgi?id=17724
Struts Dialogs is now more about the development approach than about
the class library. The sample code provided with the library shows how
to convert a page-centric setup-and-submit approach into stateful
component approach. Find the simple dispatch sample, multi-state
sample, CRUD sample and wizard sample. The latter uses wizard engine
previously available as a separate package.
There is no upgrade path from version 1.x to version 2.0. The
functionality and approach is the same, it is just that your code can
now be much tidier. Samples are much tidier as well, please check out
the Signup Wizard with very compact action and a form bean classes.
If/when ParameterListActionDispatcher is accepted into Struts 1.3.x
distribution, Struts Dialogs will serve merely as a samples library.
Struts Dialogs homepage: http://struts.sourceforge.net/strutsdialogs/index.html
Download page:
https://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=49385&package_id=154597
Samples and all needed runtime libraries are included into base
archive, so you don't have to download dialogs-samples-2.0.war file,
you can compile samples right from the base archive instead.
