Experimental Features and Plugins
Please help us test these brave new features. Feedback appreciated!
- Scope Plugin: Initial version of scope plugin that mimics JBoss Seam-style of scoped bijection (presently in the Sandbox).
- AJAX Theme: The AJAX theme is backed by the popular Dojo Framework. AJAX tags look and feel just like standard Struts tags but provide greater interactivity and flexibility (WW-1609).
- Codebehind Plugin: Reduce mundane configuration by using "page controller" conventions (WW-1515).
- Zero Configuration: Optionally, eliminate or reduce XML configuration with convention and annotation (WW-1491).
- REST-ful URLs: Use search-engine friendly URLs, like category/action/movie/Thrillers (WW-1475).
