Good work and thanks in the name of the new wanna be developers of DHIS2. I thought it was kind of worthless invest time in learning webwork when they have already announced, long time ago, their project was stopped to be merged with struts2.

Regards
Lester

    Hi,

    I have merged in Murod's work on the Struts2 upgrade. Thanks to Murod
    for good work on this!


    Additionally the dhis-support-webwork (struts) has been merged with
    dhis-web-commons as the code fit nicely here. (You can remvoe
    dhis-support-webwork from your IDE.)

    There are lots of good things about this:

    - The login time has gone from 21 sec to 1 sec.

    - We were allowed to remove the custom webwork configuration
    initialization code. Struts handles loading of config files from jars
    itself.

    - Struts2 has a lot of nice features, like support for validation,
    i18n, and direct submission of forms to domain objects which can
    improve our code potentially.



    For those interested in learning more I have uploaded Struts2 In
    Action here: http://folk.uio.no/larshelg/readings/Stuts2_In_Action.pdf


    I will have a go at the local modules too soon. Migration guide for
    web modules below.

    The Spring security upgrade needs some more work before being merged in.

    - Rename xwork.xml to struts.xml, change root xml element tag from
    <xwork> to <struts> and change the DTD to:

    <!DOCTYPE xwork PUBLIC "-//OpenSymphony Group//XWork 1.0//EN"
     "http://www.opensymphony.com/xwork/xwork-1.0.dtd";>

    - In web.xml, replace the WebWork filter definition with

    <filter>
       <filter-name>Struts</filter-name>
       <filter-class>org.apache.struts2.dispatcher.FilterDispatcher</filter-class>
     </filter>

    and change the name of the filter mapping from WebWork to Struts.

    - In action classes, change all package names from
    "com.opensymphony.xwork" to "com.opensymphony.xwork2", and
    "com.opensymphony.webwork" to "org.apache.struts2".
