• WebWork: The New Framework on the Block by Benoy Jose   - [Clicks: 86]
  The latest framework to add itself to the ranks shares the same objectives as all the others-to be easy-to-use, pluggable, scalable, etc. WebWork distinguishes itself by having understood existing framworks' limitations and working to eliminate them. It's got a lot of unique features -- like type conversion, continuations, and interceptors -- none of which are included in any of the popular frameworks on the market. And unlike Struts, WebWork also supports multiple-view technologies like JSP, velocity, and FreeMarker. You don't need to learn WebWork from scratch -- its features mirror most of the popular frameworks in the market,like Struts and Spring. In fact, this MVC-based framework borrows most of its MVC structure from Struts.

• WebWork Validation by Zarar Siddiqi   - [Clicks: 84]
  In this article, we will explore the various validation features of WebWork/XWork, including custom and conditional validation. A sample application that contains working examples of the different validation techniques is also included. I will also show how to perform "re-usable validation" using WebWork's visitor validation. This article assumes that you are somewhat familiar with WebWork and will focus on the validation aspects of the framework rather than the basics.

• WebWork Live by Matthew Porter   - [Clicks: 142]
  WebWork2 is a Model 2 MVC web framework, created and managed by OpenSymphony, that leverages the cutting-edge solution strategies of IoC, Interceptors and the OGNL expression language. It is built with interfaces instead of abstract classes, allowing you to implement your solution loosely coupled to the framework yet strongly leveraging it. Its independence from the J2EE package allows your solutions to integrate smoothly into backend solutions as never before possible. WebWork Live by Matthew Porter provides the reader the history and basics of this framework, as well as diving into intermediate topics such as interceptors, internationalization, and the XWork chain. Further chapters will cover integration with other projects such as SiteMesh, Spring and Pico.
