Hi; Ok, that brings up this question. If we are creating a portlet and it has to run on every portal, is Shale+JSF as easy to install and portable as just JSF? We're willing to live with more pain during development to make the final product as easy as possible to install and totally portable.
And same question on Spring?

Now that I have found out there is more out there, I am in a dilemma. Which one should I learn and why? I have a big web project coming up and was wondering which of these I should choose to work on. This project needs good validation and object relational or sql mapping (hibernate or ibatis). If you have any books or site links to name, please let me know. > It should be noted, of course, that a choice to use Shale would also necessarily be a choice to use JSF ... Shale assumes that JSF is there and adds value around the edges (view helper, dialogs, Commons Validator, Tiles, alternative rendering technologies, remoting support, ...). All the stuff you learn about JSF, though, is equally usable with JSF+Shale. http://struts.apache.org/shale/ > Thanks, > > Bob > Craig --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
