Experimental Features and Plugins

(tick) 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).
  • 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-1754).
  • [First-class AJAX Support: 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.
