[newsletter] some topics
I haven't seen anyone else put forth pieces for the "jakarta
newsletter", so I thought I'd take a crack at it. I just browsed the
list archives to refresh my memory, so chances are good I missed
something. Also, I didn't pay very close attention to the CVS and
bugzilla posts, so I may have overlooked some important fix or
addition...
I have no great pride in the text either, so please feel free to "patch"
anything below...
* Path-based action mapping in 1.1
One of the architectural advances from Struts 1.0 to Struts 1.1 involved
supporting multiple applications with a single Struts controller
servlet. As part of the initial implementation of this functionality,
some configuration flexibility was lost: the multi-application
controller only supports mapping URLs to Struts "actions" by extension
(i.e. "*.do") while Struts 1.0 also supported mapping by path prefix
(i.e. "/do/*"). After James Young asked if any fixes were in the works
[1], Craig McClanahan pointed out some of the complexities involved
[2]. Ted Husted described a possible solution and asked for feedback
about whether to pursue it. [3]

* Tiles add-in to moved to core
Craig McClanahan moved the "Tiles" add-in into the core CVS source tree
from the "contrib" directory.[4] Ted Husted initiated a discussion about
some code modifications to "Tiles" to make it work more closely with the
core code base.[5]

* FormBean: Interface or Class?
The discussion about whether the "FormBean" concept was best implemented
as an interface or a class resurfaced, and Craig McClanahan wrote a
decisive response explaining the motivation for maintaining it as a
class.[6] In summary, designing FormBean as an interface would
facilitate inappropriate tangling of the "model" layer with the "view"
layer, while making it a class of its own encourages clean separation of
those layers.

* Struts and the Java Standard Tag Library (JSTL)
After announcing the 1.0 release of the JSTL, Shawn Bayern offered
assistance towards integrating the rich Struts tag libraries with the
JSTL, which in many cases offers equivalent functionality.[7] Craig
McClanahan indicated that a likely goal for a post 1.1 release of Struts
would be thorough integration with the JSTL expression language, and
aiming towards an eventual replacement of the Struts "bean" and "logic"
tag libraries with the equivalent tags from JSTL.[8]

* New Committer: James Holmes
James Holmes, author of the popular Struts Console tool, was proposed as
a committer by Ted Husted [9] and was accepted unanimously.

dev@jakarta.apache.org&msgNo=8341
* Steps towards Struts 1.1b2
As much of the activity on the list in June involved "swatting" bugs in
the current 1.1b1 release, Craig McClanahan proposed steps towards a
Struts 1.1b2 by around July 8th[10] The requirements for the next beta
are basically closing any remaining bugs and improving documentation of
new Struts features. Committers responded promptly with +1 votes and
further contributions.

Not our problem really, but I just wish the email archive references
weren't so long as to be virtually useless in email messages =:0)
Maybe we should put this up on the news page before we send it over so
we can have a version with real hyperlinks.
I'll make the commit if we are in agreement.

Re: [newsletter] some topics

+1, looks really good. I think it will be hard to
pick just a few each month since the User (and dev
lately) list is so active.
I think we should probably put some sort of blurb with
a link to the news page so that people reading the
general newsletter can click over to the news page to
see more struts specific news.

> * FormBean: Interface or Class?
> The discussion about whether the "FormBean" concept
> was best implemented
> as an interface or a class resurfaced, and Craig
> McClanahan wrote a
> decisive response explaining the motivation for
> maintaining it as a
> class.[6] In summary, designing FormBean as an
> interface would
> facilitate inappropriate tangling of the "model"
> layer with the "view"
> layer, while making it a class of its own encourages
> clean separation of
> those layers.

> * Struts and the Java Standard Tag Library (JSTL)
> After announcing the 1.0 release of the JSTL, Shawn
> Bayern offered
> assistance towards integrating the rich Struts tag
> libraries with the
> JSTL, which in many cases offers equivalent
> functionality.[7] Craig
> McClanahan indicated that a likely goal for a post
> 1.1 release of Struts
> would be thorough integration with the JSTL
> expression language, and
> aiming towards an eventual replacement of the Struts
> "bean" and "logic"
> tag libraries with the equivalent tags from JSTL.[8]

> * Steps towards Struts 1.1b2
> As much of the activity on the list in June involved
> "swatting" bugs in
> the current 1.1b1 release, Craig McClanahan proposed
> steps towards a
> Struts 1.1b2 by around July 8th[10] The
> requirements for the next beta
> are basically closing any remaining bugs and
> improving documentation of
> new Struts features. Committers responded promptly
> with +1 votes and
> further contributions.
