I had forwarded to him a message by Thiago that was trying to point out
differences between T5 and JSF.
The interesting thing he has to say is about facelets as a way to use
standard XHTML templates inside JSF.
Facelets was inspired by the Tapestry 4 template engine. I'm not making
this up, this was explicitly said in the Facelets home page
(https://facelets.dev.java.net/). :) "The web community is eagerly seeking
a framework like Tapestry, backed by JavaServer Faces as the industry
standard."
Also the difficulty to use together different component sets is
interesting: reminds me of the issue with different JavaScript
components in T5.
Are you talking about Tapestry or JSF? JSF has compatibility problems
among implementation and packages, Tapestry doesn't. The
incomplatibilities you're talking about are purely JavaScript ones
(Prototype vs jQuery), not Tapestry related.
But what really surprises me is the similarity he found between struts
and JSF
It doesn't surprise me. struts-config.xml (aaaaaaaaaaaaargh) and
faces-config.xml are similar. Both frameworks use navigations rules (which
I consider a faiiled experiment, a solution in search of a problem) and
have the same architect (Craig McClanahan). JSF, to me, looks like a
component-oriented version of Struts.
