« Example of WebWork Continuations | Main | WebWork in Action now available »
As I have already mentioned, the WebWork team is fully committed to cooperating with existing Java community members. To fully demonstrate that commitment, WebWork has done what it should have done a long time ago: adopted Spring as the official IoC container. WebWork's own IoC container is deprecated as of version 2.2 beta 2.
On top of that, we recently updated how Spring integration works and made it even simpler to plug in. See the updated documentation here.

WebWork adopts spring as standard container
Consolidation is a good thing for a fragmented open source arena, but it’s not common. The most recent example was when AspectJ and AspectWerkz joined forces. The GCC and EGCS projects merged in 1999,... [Read More]

Is this covered in "Webwork in Action" or is the IOC stuff in the book already outdated?

I wouldn't say that the book is "already outdated". We spent quite a bit of time making sure that features that were hidden or disabled by default in 2.1 were covered in the book. That said, development that happened a week ago obviously won't be in the book. If we end up doing a second print, perhaps we'll add 2.2 topics.

I just read an article on Spring Web Flow (SWF). Does WW work with SWF? If one were to develop a project integrating the these two frameworks, what functionality would be developed using WW and what functionality using Spring/SWF?
P.S. I did order the book (tree version) : ) Still waiting.

I am also interested in that (SWF). Someone please post an answer. I also want to know if WW has it's own implementation of web flow with user roles taken into consideration. Thanks.

Hi, I've done a test using webwork 2.1.5 and Spring 1.2.6.
It's worked fine.
You can achieve the better of two worlds using both frameworks.
See ya
