[Webwork-user] WebWork vs. Other Frameworks

[Steven H. <ly...@ya...>]

Hi,

I need to develop a J2EE application using an MVC
architecture. In the past I have just developed
frameworks similar to the J2EE Blue Prints, but it is
cumbersome and takes time to develop (although it
performs very well from a scalability and memory usage
perspective).

I also need the ability to internationalize my
application.

I have briefly looked at WebWork and Struts but wanted
to find out from the field what you believe the
benefits are to using WebWork. Also, what portion of
my architecture does WebWork provide? Just the web
portion or does it provide the framework for the EJB
backend as well (a mechanism for forwarding business
events to to middleware)?

I have followed Rickard's accomplishments over the
past few years (through JBoss and theserverside.com)
and I am betting this is the framework for me.

Thanks in advance.
Steven Haines
