So based on this feedback, where I have a webapp like AppFuse (that
implements the same thing with 4 webapps, but also wants to be a
library for users), would you suggest doing something like the
following?
web (JARs)
- common (common filters, listeners, etc. between impls below)
- jsf
- spring
- struts
- tapestry
war (WARs)
- common (common jsps, images, stylesheets, etc between wars below)
- jsf
- spring
- struts
- tapestry
I suppose this seems reasonable; I just never expected AppFuse to turn
into 9 JARs and 5 WARs!
Matt
Thinking about this a bit more, the following seems like it might be a
little easier to understand and work with (from an AppFuse developer
perspective, not a users).
web
- common
- war
- jsf
- war
- spring
- war
- struts
- war
- tapestry
- war
Thoughts?
Thanks,
Matt
