WebSphere Studio Struts tooling.

There was a record crowd at the RTP-WUG meeting tonight. Shakeel Mahate presented a nice overview of Struts and Thomas Roche presented an energetic and entertaining overview of the (Eclipse-based) <a href= "http://www-3.ibm.com/software/info1/websphere/index.jsp?tab=products/studio">WebSphere Studio's Struts tooling. There was not much time left for Jason Garcowski, who provided a brief demo of IBM's example "Trade" application.

The Struts tools were pretty impressive and included a Struts tag-aware WYSIWYG JSP/HTML editor, a sophisticated struts-config.xml editor, and an innovative Struts Web Diagram Editor or 'Woody' as Thomas called it. If you want to learn more about these tools, visit the WebSphere Studio Zone or check out IBM's redbook titled <a href= "http://publib-b.boulder.ibm.com/Redbooks.nsf/RedbookAbstracts/sg246806.html?Open">Legacy Modernization with WebSphere Studio Enterprise Developer. Chapters 4 through 7 provide a good introduction both to Struts and the WebSphere Studio Struts tooling - including lots of screen-shots like the one below.
