Derek - Thanks again for the great presentation. Your stories are great and your passion motivating. I look forward to hearing another one in the future and good luck on the IronMan training… that’s nuts man.

Comment on Struts 2, “A Day in the Life of” by Jared Peterson

Mark, first question, are you sure you’re using Struts 2.1.1? 2.1.1 is not the current “release” version (2.0.11.1) you have to download and compile 2.1.1. Easiest way to get 2.1.1 is probably via subversion. http://struts.apache.org/dev/builds.html

If you’re sure you’re using 2.1.1 then you need to download and compile both the CodeBehind plugin and the REST plugin.

You can grab the code for each of those here and here.

After you compile you just need to make sure that the jars are placed in your WEB-INF/lib directory.

For an actual example of using REST within Struts 2 check out the REST showcase.

If none of this helps, shoot me an email with your Tomcat errors.

I’ve been trying to get the struts 2 restful plugin to work.

Not compatible with Tomcat runtime errors.

Can you send me where you got the code and a simple example or somewhere to go for a complete example?

Thanks Michael, I updated the IntelliJ section to include setting the paths for Groovy & Grails.

Nicely done, thanks! I did have to do a “chmod a+x *” in /usr/local/grails-1.0.2/bin, FWIW.

Yours is one of the most spot-on Top 10 lists of 2007 I’ve seen. That Fountains of Wayne album rocked me through many boring hours at work this summer. Iron & Wine, New Pornographers, Radiohead also fabulous albums. Personally, I would add LCD Soundsystem’s “Sound of Silver” to the list AND The Fratelli’s Costello music I’m still listening to over and over again.

One of my pet peeves: People who don’t yield to pedestrians. I can assure you this also happens in Raleigh, Five Points in particular. You’re definitely taking your life into your own hands if you try to cross the street on foot anywhere in that area!
