  <p>Velocity for Struts is a subproject of the <a href="http://jakarta.apache.org/velocity/">Apache Velocity</a> project. This is an example web application demonstrating the integration of the
  <a href="http://jakarta.apache.org/struts/">Struts web application framework</a>
  with the <a href="http://jakarta.apache.org/velocity/">Velocity template engine</a>.
  </p>
  
  
  
  <h5>Highlights</h5>
  <ul>
  	<li>Velocity is now becoming an alternative view technology for Struts-based
  	    Web applications.</li>
  	<li>Velocity templates can be mixed with JSP templates in the same application.</li>
  	<li>No changes are required to Struts. This works with Struts 1.0, 1.01, 1.02, and 1.1.</li>
  </ul>
  
  
  <h5>Status</h5>
  <p>The API has been redesigned completely and is now more complete and more
  systematic. An early draft of several documentation pages is
  now available. Several projects are currently using the software. New versions will be announced on the Velocity
  mailing list and home page.</p>
  
  
  
  
  <h5>Application Examples</h5>
  <p>Five small <a href="$link.setAction("examples")">application examples</a> have
  been included. Look at example 2 for a demonstration of the Velocity
  view tools for Struts. JSP versions of some of the examples have
  been included to allow a direct comparison of the two view technologies.
  </p>
  
  
  
  <h5>Documentation</h5>
  <p>This project is hosted at <a href="http://jakarta.apache.org/velocity/toolsubproject.html">http://jakarta.apache.org/velocity/toolsubproject.html</a>. There you find the latest news and instructions to download the software.</p>
  <p>An early draft of the <a href="http://www.teamup.com/jakarta-velocity-tools/struts/docs/index.html">
  documentation</a> is available online. This is a work in progress but I guess it is better than no documentation at all.</p>
  
  
  
  
  <h5>Tested Configuration</h5>
  <ul>
  	<li>Tomcat 4.1, Jetty 4.2.15</li>
  	<li>IE 6.0</li>
  	<li>JDK 1.4.2</li>
  	<li>Ant 1.4.1</li>
  	<li>Jakarta Struts 1.1 (Binary Library Distribution) </li>
  	<li>Jakarta Velocity 1.3.1 with dependencies</li>
  	<li>Jakarta Servlet API 4 (same as distributed with Tomcat 4)
  	</li>
  </ul>
