Can anyone recommend a good shopping cart system for Struts? We don't want to 
write one from scratch.
   
  We've built a struts/hibernate application on Linux. The products are shown 
with specific pricing and options. But, when it is time to purchase the plan, 
we want to send the customer to a commercial or open-source shopping cart with 
our Web site's headers/footers. And, we want the system to offer drop shipping 
so suppliers are notified.
   
  We've looked into several:
   
  1. OS Commerce (http://www.oscommerce.org/) 
   
  2. eBay ProStores (http://www.prostores.com/product-information.shtml)
  ProStores contractors say it can't be done. But, notice the enterprise 
version offers "Virtual inventory management with drop shipment and supplier 
notification"--which is the drop ship feature we need.
   
  3. ShopSite (http://www.shopsite.com/) or Yahoo Merchant Solutions 
(http://sbs.smallbusiness.yahoo.com/merchant/)- the product price and options 
can be presented as name/value pairs around the Buy button form.
   
  4. Interchange (http://www.icdevgroup.org/) -- The product price and options 
can be written to a MySQL database that would be read by Interchange, which is 
a great open source shopping cart but Interchange is written in Perl (a write 
only language)
   
  Any ideas?
