tapestry inside .net

["t.n.a." <tn...@sharanet.org>]

I inherited a relatively small, but a 
this-is-how-it's-now-supposed-to-be-done asp.net application which I 
have to extend. I'd like to do it using tapestry mostly because this 
extension may later grow into a separate web site.
It maybe a stupid question, but still: is the separation  between page 
frames good enough to run a small tapsetry app inside a frame of an 
asp.net application? What kind of problems could or should I expect? Is 
it "good enough" if the server running tomcat is in the same LAN as the 
.net server or should they be one and the same? These are not high load 
pages so CPU and memory load shouldn't be an issue.

Thank you for your comments, Daniel. There's no authentication and the 
.net app is mainly stateless so the session is no problem. As for 
tomcat-.net session exchange you're right, I too don't think there's an 
easy way to make them talk: they are different processes and cannot 
share memory without using an external mechanism (IPC, database, 
whatever). In the meantime, I've managed to make the customer say "fine, 
no problem, make it a separate page" so the interface is going to be 
minimal. Might try frames just to see how it works.

Well there are the obvious problems such as authentication and session 
control, others have asked the same question about PHP....You'd have to 
be a pretty strong IIS server guy to write the piece of code needed to 
get the servlet container to share the same session as the asp.net 
application....I'm not even sure how possible this would be, nor would I 
have any interest in attempting it.   So if you can live with two 
totally seperate web applications or figure out a clever way to make the 
session appear unified even though it isn't, then tapestry may be a good 
choice.  Others can tell you about using tapestry within frames, but I 
would not suspect this is would be a  big issue, however I would 
reccomend that your application does not try to do anything "across 
frames" but rather you put all the functionality in one frame.  This is 
ideal for ease of development, but may not be possible depending on your 
requirements.
