[WebMacro-user] Re: WebMacro and Spring Framework

[Hai-Chen Tu <hc...@op...>]

Lane,
         I think WebMacro has the best template syntax among all the 
template solutions.

         To better understand Spring, I will try to implement needed 
classes to integrate
         WebMacro with Spring using its existing implementation as a 
reference. I think
         the basic implementation is straightforward, e.g., keep most 
webmacro configuration
         setup through webmacro.xml and not through Sprint's configuration 
file.
