Turbine and JSP

[Denis Abt <de...@pixelpark.com>]

We are using the Turbine framework together with Velocity, a great 
combination imo. Anyway, for several reasons we need to be able to use 
the services provided by Turbine from plain JSP pages.

My two questions are
- can the Turbine configuration be modified in order to process both 
Velocity templates and JSP templates ? I found the JSP-howto, but that 
doesn't provide much help for me. Is there any further/more detailed 
documentation about that ?
- how can the Turbine services be accessed from a JSP page ? Has anybody 
already done that ?

Might be a stupid question, sorry if that's the case. I need to find 
that out, although I prefer using the Velocity model, which I think is 
great.

Thanks for any help
Denis

It can be done, has been done, and there is code in some repo to do
it.  However, the state of said code is uknown by me.  None of the
active maintainers actually use JSP at the moment, so it doesn't get
much attention.  That does not mean that you couldn't whip whatever
that's there into shape and have JSP support fairly quickly, of
course.
