[s2] servlet 2.4 required ?
Hello,
I'm starting a project based on Java 1.4 and serlet 2.3 (tomcat 4.1). I'd
like to use Struts2 as it includes retro-translated support for java 1.4.
According to project main page (
http://struts.apache.org/2.x/#Platform%20Requirements), servlet 2.4 is
required. Does this mean I will have to wait all my customer to upgrade to
JEE5 prior to using Struts2 ? If so, I'll have to wait 1 or 2 years ...

As a published requirement, Struts 2 requires Servlet 2.4. However,
I'd bet you could run a Struts 2 app on Servlet 2.3, if you were
careful and did plenty of testing. You might run into a few problems
in some of the JSP tags or perhaps interceptors, but as a whole,
Struts 2 tries to stay away from the servlet api wherever possible.
If you decide to go with Struts 2 on Servlet 2.3 and get it working,
please let us know and better yet, write a wiki doc describing your
approach and potential pitfalls. :)

OK for JEE version, but none of my customer server is servlet 2.4 compliant
(all are servlet 2.3, and sometime java 1.3 !).
Is servlet 2.4 dependency required for all features ? Can I run a
Struts 2.0webapp with some limitations on tomcat
4.1 : Mailreader 2.0.1 runs fine under my tomcat 4.1.30

Yes, Struts 2 requires Servlet 2.4. The Servlet 2.4 spec was
finalized over three years ago, and if I've got my versions straight,
is part of J2EE 1.4.
