About the Book
Struts solves the most common problems of web development. By basing your application on the Struts framework, you can reuse proven solutions and focus on what's unique to your own case. Struts is an open-source product distributed by the Apache Software Foundation. Struts in Action is a comprehensive introduction to the Struts framework. It covers initial design, data validation, database access, dynamic page assembly, localization, product configuration, and other important areas. It shows you how to use both JSP tags and Velocity templates. It carefully explains the Struts architecture and control flow, as well as how to extend framework classes. Differences between Struts 1.1 and Struts 1.0. are pointed out and a case-study illustrates the 1.0 to 1.1 transition. The book shows you dozens of proven design techniques, patterns, and strategies, many of them not found elsewhere. About the ChaptersIn chapter 3, " Building a simple application, " the authors put together a simple but useful program from square one. The authors tour, dissect, and then construct an application for logging users in and out. This chapter is designed to give a hands-on developer "the big picture." Chapter 12, " Validating user input," covers the important topic of validating user input. A popular extension to the Struts core is the Struts Validator. This is a very powerful component that provides both client-side and server-side validation from the same configuration.
