Re: [WebMacro-user] WM and J2EE?

[Nick S. <NSa...@ms...>]

Hi 

We use webmacro in all our full j2ee applications, sevlets, session
beans (even entity beans on old systems!), JMS etc.
for large corporate customers.

The patterns are different as we tend not to redirect very often,
showing a page is less of a passing a bundle of variables to 
a renderer and far more naturally fill context -> show page.

The EJB layer knows nothing about webmacro - except for odd templating
uses divorced from display (emails for example)
and webmacro knows nothing about EJB. Which is as it should be , I
think.

With our sets of macros replacing JSTL we never really have any need
for JSP and as we still have legacy asp sites to support occasionally I
can only say that it is a bit of a relief.

Regards

Nick

Hello all,

Due to market pressures, I'm currently training myself up on J2EE 
technologies. There's not much work here in the UK for Java web 
applications without commercial EJB and JSP experience, which is really

sad :(

Anyway, I was wondering if anybody has done any work to use WebMacro 
within serious J2EE applications, to use WM as the Web Tier instead of

the dreaded JSP?

I'd be interested to hear what people have found. There might be some 
work we can do on WM to smooth things out.

It pains me when I see all these contracts for EJB/JSP/Hibernate/Spring

but it pains me even more when I see the odd one for EJB/Velocity!

Cheers
