Practical Apache Struts 2 Web 2.0 Projects is nothing less than one of the first books to cover the agile, lightweight open source Apache Struts 2 Web Framework, an essentially new and improved Struts platform that should meet today’s more agile Java development needs. Apache Struts remains the most popular framework for building Java-driven web sites, despite continued challenges from competitive frameworks and APIs like JavaServer Faces (JSF), Wicket, Grails, and more. The new features incorporated into Struts 2 will help this powerful framework to maintain its top-ranking position for the foreseeable future.
The book "do the job", no more, no less. It tackles progressively the different topics around struts 2. A bit of originality come with the RSS streams handling. Overall, the text could have been writen more efficiently to fit in 250 pages. Ma note de lecture en Français ici
