Structs or Turbine.

I have seen another project called structs. It also provides most of the
services provided by Turbine as far as web layer is considered, like session
management, actions, templates. But Turbine is good for the backend, like
connection pooling, etc. 

In my project, I am not sure if it is good to use structs in the web layer
and use turbine as the business logic layer. Would this create a problem of
using two types of projects in the same project.

Also if I decide to use Turbine, why would I have to use Structs.

I think you mean Struts. Well it's the framework which is strongly connected 
to the J2EE. So if you want that, especially if you want to use JSP, have a 
look at Struts again.

Turbine uses a different way to do things. But I like it and think it's 
easier than J2EE, because it has so many utilities.

So make your choice.

Maybe it's possible but you'll have more problems than advantages.

JSP isn't supported as good as in Struts.
