Announcement: WebWork 2.2.3 released!
OpenSymphony and the WebWork team are proud to announce the release of
WebWork version 2.2.3.
WebWork 2.2.3 is mainly a bugfix release with some additions, improvements
and backports from Struts 2.0.

Thanks to the entire WebWork team for all their hard work, especially

If it helps, you can compare versions of the MailReader, since we have
one for Struts 1.3 and Struts 2.0. If you try that, I'd suggest
starting with revision 423340 for the S2 version, since the head has
been refactored for wildcards. (Though that should work for Struts 1.3
too.) If you follow the S2 Mailreader revisions all the way back, you
can see it go from S1 to WW2 and then from WW2 to S2.
* http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/struts/struts2/trunk/apps/mailreader/src/main/?pathrev=423340
I still have a few updates to make to the S2 documentation before I
get back to the migration guide myself, and my "3-hour tour" probably
won't be ready in time for your presentation.
If you are interested, in the sandbox, there are a series of training
labs where we build the MailReader from scratch, if that helps with
the "greenfield" portion.
* http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/struts/sandbox/trunk/mailreader-course/struts2/
The initial lab is hello and then welcome. The complete list is here:

Yes. I expect the audience I'm presentation to to be familiar with
Struts 1.x. I'm sure it's good to do an intro to Struts 2.0 as well,
but overall I'd like to have them leave a 1.5 hour presentation with
the knowledge they need to convert a Struts 1.x app, as well as
greenfield a Struts 2.0 application. Migrating an existing project in
real-time is a good idea/demonstration.

How many people did you get in your class? Just wondering how popular it is so far...

In my five-day class last week, we spent most of the time covering
Struts 2 from the ground-up, and I made comparisons to Struts 1 along
the way. The course uses the MailReader as a running example. On day
five, after we had built our own Struts 2 MailReader, we went back to
the Struts 1 version. We deployed the Struts 1 MailReader WAR, and
then started converting it to Struts 2, page by page. We got a good
start, and it really helped show how the versions differ.
For my "three-hour tour" at ApacheCon US, I was thinking of covering
the high-points, and then go to work on converting the MailReader,
page by page. (Encouraging people to follow along on their own
laptops.)
During the high-points presentation, I thought we might show a
struts-config.xml and then the same thing as a struts.xml
configuration. Ditto for the Actions and pages. After covering the
basics, we could spend the rest of the time migrating the MailReader,
live and direct.
Is that the sort of thing you had in mind, Matt?

I believe most already have.

Not as such. The release notes have more about migrating from WW2 to
S2 than from S1 to S2.

There are a lot of 1:1 comparisons and places where you can change
things over with a quick search/replace. You don't have to rework the
application architecture or logic, but there are a lot of simple code
changes, which is to say code simplifications.

2 Questions:
1) Is this available on a Maven 2 repo? I'd love to run some quick
tests to make sure it works with AppFuse.
2) Are all these bug fixes going into Struts 2.0.0? I'm assuming yes.
I'm hoping to upgrade AppFuse from WW to the latest Struts 2.0.0
snapshot this week. I'm starting a presentation on "Migrating from
Struts 1 to Struts 2" next week. Has anyone started such a document?
I'd be happy to contribute.
