[Posted April 16, 2003 by cook]

Jerome Josephraj discusses the use of Struts and Web services on IBM's developerWorks. "When you're converting an enterprise app for use with Web services, the simplest way to do it is to associate a single operation with a single enterprise service. But that's not necessarily the best idea. In this article, Jerome Josephraj shows you how to build Web services applications based on the tried and true Model-View-Controller (MVC) design pattern. To that end, he's adapted Struts, a popular open-source MVC framework, for use in the Web services arena. By examining the sample application outlined here, you'll see how you can use Struts and Web services together."
