[opencms-dev] Struts 2 with OpenCms 7.5.2

[Edwin Chiu]

Hi Achim,

I can see your point. Especially you said "The more custom modification are
done to a product the harder it will become to get support or for other
developers that join the team later to understand what is going on.", it let
me thinking of mapping the forward path to OpenCms's vfs is such an ugly
manner. 

Anyway, thanks for your reference and sharing. You always give me some
useful directions in this forum.

Let me waiting for other suggestions on Struts 2. 

Thanks
Edwin
