"The Struts Framework" by Tom Janofsky
Sponsored by Perfect Order
Abstract
J2EE developers are confronted with the problem of constructing extensible and maintainable web front ends. JSPs and servlets provide the technologies, but lack a unifying architecture. This presentation will examine the Struts Framework, an open source framework that encourages web architectures based on the Model-View-Controller (MVC) design pattern. We will focus on the architecture of the Struts framework, tag libraries and utilities provided, and implementation choices. The presentation will include design and implementation discussion, and the presentation of a sample Struts application.
