Hi everyone, For a new project, I'm planning on using JSF. The questions I need to answer are:
What will Struts add if I use it together with JSF? Does it add missing functionality? Is there a good design pattern that JSF alone does not enforce? Are there common problems that are easier to solve using the combination? (For the moment, ignore the validation framework and tiles) I've been searching the internet and the list archives for answers. The only concrete feature I found was message from Craig saying that because all request processing is routed through a common controller, Struts helps implementing things such as authentication and logging. Is this significantly easier that decorating the viewHandler or actionListener in JSF? Isn't that what struts-faces does anyway? (the message I'm referring to can be found here: http://mail-archives.apache.org/eyebrowse/ReadMsg? [EMAIL PROTECTED]&msgNo=112850) I've got a fairly good handle on JSF, but I'm not proficient with Struts. I'm hoping some of the seasoned Struts developers reading this can point out the benefits I've missed.
