Hi subodha,

Find out the differences.

1) 1.1:- The controller servlet is ActionServlet and implements FrontController design pattern

2.x:- The controller servlet is FilterDispatcher and implements intercepting design pattern

2) 1.1:- Name of struts configuration file is < any anme>.xml

2.x:- File name is fixed Struts.xml and location is WEB-INF/classes

3)1.1:- FormBeans and Action classes are api dependent so unit testing is difficult.

2.x:- No formbeans and Action classes are normal java classes (POJO model) so unit testing is easy. can use JUNIT tool.

4) Inthe place of Request Processors , interceptors are given.

5) 1.1:-Thread safety is required in Action subclasses because there will be single object and multiple threads created for multiple requests.

2.x:- For every request one object will be created for Action class.

6) 1.1:- Huge complexity to work with spring,hibernate and Ajax.

2.x:- Built in support to with spring,hibernate and Ajax.

7) 1.1:- XML files are dtd based.

2.x:- XML files are schema based.

😎 1.1:- Given basewd on j2sdk 1.4

2.x:- Given basewd on j2sdk 1.5 ,so there is a support os Annotations.

9) 1.1:- Uses validator framework declerative validations.

2.x:- Uses Xframe work to perform form validations.

10) 1.1:- Uses jsps as view layer technology.

2.x:- Uses jsps,freemaker,velocity as view layer technology.

If u got the answer pls close the thread.
