[Webwork-devel] Aware-interfaces

[Rickard <ri...@mi...>]

Hey

I've been thinking about the *Aware interfaces. They are used to access=20
context which the action executes in. However, I'm more and more leaning=20
towards deprecating these in favor of accessing=20
ActionFactory.getContext() directly. This use of context should not=20
really have an impact on what the class looks like since they are=20
processing-oriented and not type-oriented. Plus, accessing=20
ActionFactory.getContext() directly requires less code.

The only reason I can see to keep the *Aware interfaces is that it makes=20
it easy to see what dependencies a particular action uses (e.g. servlet=20
or locale or similar).

Opinions and thoughts on this?
