Success with Struts [OFF-TOPIC]
Does anyone have any stories of great success with Struts? I'm trying to
convince management that Struts is a good thing and applications can be
developed efficiently and solidly with it. If so please email me directly as
I think this may be slightly off-topic.

Nick,
I have been using Struts to develop our companies bread and butter
application on the web. Personally, I have found the product extremely
sound and well thought out from a design perspective.
The biggest plus is that it is standards based. We currently run Tomcat
3.2.1 but that is only for convience. We have talked about having an
outside service host the application therefore standards based is a big plus
for us.
I hope this helps you.

Turbine and Struts both have connection pool implementations.
Struts can actually use any connection pool that implements
javax.sql.DataSource -- it only defaults to its own. The Turbine
connection pool, unfortunately, is not useful for this because it does not
implement the DataSource interface. However, several other connection
pool implementations available on the web are suitable.
There is an ongoing discussion about creating a "Commons" project within
the Jakarta framework to create and maintain shareable implementations of
components like this -- and a connection pool is the primary example of
the kind of code we all want to be able to share. Once the commons
project is started, the physical source code for the connection pool
Struts uses will move to the Commons project, but this move will have
little or no impact on Struts applications (you'll need a separate JAR
file, but that's easy to deal with).

Where is the connection pool ?
in tomcat, in turbine or in strut ?

We've only got a few replies so far. Surely there must be
other interesting projects using Struts ? Please let us know, thanks.

I don't think its off-topic. As a matter of fact I'm also trying
to sell my management and would also like to here about success
stories. If people could post to the list I'd be happy to
collect the responses for inclusion in the Struts site.
Suggested format for responses:
Company name and URL
Contact person (optional)
Description of application using Struts
Number of users plus any performance metrics
Server environment: Describe Web/App server being used, and
database config (DataSource ?).

Kyle,
SilverStream's flagship example application, SilverBooks, was rewritten with
Struts in their newly released, j2ee compliant, SilverStream application
server 3.7.
If you've got the time and inclination you can download a single user
version of the appserver and it comes with the SilverBooks application. The
app itself is an Amazon type knockoff. It looks pretty good.
Get it at http://www.silverstream.com
HTH,
Bill Pfeiffer

AW: Success with Struts [OFF-TOPIC]
Posted by ol...@epost.de.
As one of the biggest insurance companies in Europe (or maybe the biggest
:-)) ) we decided to use STRUTS for inhouse Intranet development.
We are using STRUTS with IPlanet6.0 SP2 and the only problem we have is
the incompatibility of IPlanet concerning Servlet 2.2 and JSP1.1...but even
that is solvable.
