IMHO, major framework upgrades for existing application, in general is
unworthy of the cost, headache, and the gotchas that they never tell you
about. If there are new compelling business-value-producing features in the
upgrade, more than likely you have to redesign the application. That's
another story and can take a business project life of its own.
If you starting a new application development, though, it's better always to
do it in the new framework and roll the above mentioned cost into the
project cost.
Off course framework vendors or authors don't see it that way :)
Not me. I have large Struts 1 apps that will never see a move to
Struts 2 simply because it isn't worth it. They are generally feature
complete, and would see little gain from a new framework even if the
switch was as painless as possible.
Yes, there is a Struts 1 plugin, and yes, it will allow you to run
many Actions and ActionForms unchanged on Struts 2, but as Tom
mentioned, you'd have to redo your config, redo your pages for the new
tags, and work out any inevitable incompatibilities in framework
behavior.
If you have some new development time for a Struts 1 application, I'd
consider writing new modules in Struts 2 and run them side-by-side
Struts 1. Then, you can migrate as necessary if your end goal is a
Struts 2 app.

Hi,
we have a pretty large code in struts-1. What is more complicated moving to
struts2 or spring mvc?
