T5 & JSP Tag Libarary

["Hong Yu (hoyu2)" <ho...@cisco.com>]

Hi,

I'm evaluating different web development framework right now and I have
found T5 very attractive. We have a large JSP Tag library that corporate
uses to enforce the standard interface look&feel. My question is whether
it is possible to use T5 and our corporate JSP Tag library together. 

Your advice would be greatly appreciated.

Hong

Tapestry, particularly T5 uses XML/xhtml as a template, not a  
scripting language.  It doesn't interpret tags via the standard JSP  
tag system, if I am not mistaken.

JSPs are converted to servlet code which is then compiled.  No such  
transformation happens in Tapestry.  So while you might be able to use  
the existing underlying JSP code to lay out your templates  
structurally, you are certainly not able to use your taglibs.  It's  
sort of like asking if you can use your Visual Basic code in your new  
Java Program.  You can use it to inform your creation of the java  
logic, but you can't just use it as it is - not the same kind of system.

Unless I have completely misunderstood.

Christian.

Hi Hong,

Not so sure, but I'm doubtful about using those tags with T5 when even T4's
own tags cant be used. I come from desktop background and trying to find a
framework for my first web application, evaluated JSP, GWT, Struts, T4 and
T5, and found T5 is the easiest and powerful framework among them, the
concept is very natural reminding me of Delphi in the Windows, especially
those onActiveEvents which look very much the same as Delphi's form events,
html/java per page is similar to Delphi's dfm/pas, the only thing lacking
maybe is just a visual IDE. When learning those web frameworks I have been
always forced to read MVC tutorials of different frameworks and wondering
why I have to be back to basic every time a new framework is under
evaluation, with T5 I started to program as soon as possible and later
realize how come I did not read its MVC first:) However I have to be honest,
the first Hi/Lo tutorial took me several hours to complete because of some
mistakes in the tutorial, I just came across another posting regarding the
same problem yesterday, with more documenation and Ajax support T5 will be a
better option.
