Hello Matthias,
 
The animal quiz does not really depend on it, at least not for now. The
problem is when you would have two forms on the same page and each of
them have for example a required field. This should render 2 different
javascript methods, each one handling the required fields of their form.
But in struts 1.1 it will render only a single method with all required
fields from all forms.
 
So what will happen is that when you want to post form A, you'll need to
specify the required fields for form B too (although these values will
not be used in the server)
 
Since this case does not occur in the animal quiz it's not a concern,
but I strongly recommend to use them anyway. I have already see some
other improvements that allow me to write simpler templates, an example
is the StrutsIndexJsp.vsl . in Struts 1.1 there is no 'action' attribute
in <logic:redirect . /> (the docs say there is, but the TLD is missing
that one), in struts 1.2 this is fixed.
 
I guess you're not 100% comfortable relying a development build, but I
have a proposition: at the first sign of problems I'll rollback to
Struts 1.1 .
 
Sounds good ? or still having doubts about it ?
 
cheers
Wouter.
 
Ps: approx 80% of all other applications will suffer from a rollback to
struts 1.1. as most of them allow more than one form per page

Hi Wouter,
 
can you tell us in which aspect the animal quiz depends on those libs?
 
Cheers...
Matthias
 
P.S.: By the way, did you see my new version of the "guess" activity
graph?  There are many nodes in it that "remember" something. Could this
be optimized? For example, the two extra action states I introduced just
to remember the user's "yes" and "no" answers?

Hello,
 
I just uploaded some libs to the team server, these libs are development
builds for struts 1.2 and commons-validator 1.2.2
The reason is that they are not yet available at ibiblio (the default
maven repository)
 
1.2 is very close to 1.1, and fixes numerous issues I have encountered .
such as multiple forms per page are now correctly validated
 
on the other hand, there may be new issues with these builds (I don't
think I am using any features that are exotic enough though), so when
you run into something strange let me know
 
I names the libs and tlds with the following suffix: -1.2dev-SNAPSHOT
 
Please do NOT delete them from the server, the animal quiz depends on it
 
Thanks
Wouter.
 
Ps: this solution is temporary until 1.2 is officially released.
