Hi Karl,<br>
<br>
While many people are enthusiastic about AppFuse, I think what Matt is
actually saying on that page (the "Sliced Bread" statement) is that <span style="font-style: italic;">Spring</span> is the best thing since sliced bread. Prolly a tad confusing.<br>
<br>
What I've gathered is that AppFuse is meant to be a get-you-started
application generator. I think the problem it aims to solve is to
create a skeleton of an application for you, given your choices from a
handful of open source options for various layers, i.e. O/R. I
think it's especially useful for developers that want to use some of
these frameworks but don't have experience with several of them.<br>
<br>
Say I have experience with all the things I want to use, except
Hibernate. I'd go to the Hibernate site and learn the
basics. But if I want an app that uses Hibernate, Spring, Acegi
Security and
DWR, learning each of them and piecing together a working starting
implementation can take quite a bit of time and effort. I think
it this particular problem that AppFuse is meant to help us with.<br>

Hi gang,<br><br>I'm at it again. I'd like to know if somebody somewhere has actually<br>used AppFuse to create a webapp. The slides and website seems to think<br>it's the best thing since sliced bread, but search as I might, I can't
<br>find a single useful application built with it.<br><br>(Now, I'm the first to admit that my searching skillz may have failed me.)<br><br><br>Cheers,<br><br>-- Karl T<br>--<br><a href="mailto:gentoo-java@g.o" target="_blank" onclick="return top.js.OpenExtLink(window,event,this)">
