4.0 out of 5 stars Best of the bunch 8 July 2004
Format:Paperback
When learning a new subject I like to surround myself with several books to get a better all round picture. So I bought the three main Struts titles: this book, "Struts In Action", and the O'Reilly "Programming Jakarta Struts".

IMHO this book is miles ahead of the other two both in terms of its content and structure. In contrast I found the "Struts In Action" book quite confusing, and the O'Reilly volume was a little terse - which I find to be a common problem with that publisher.

1.0 out of 5 stars Struts - the complete reference 3 Jan 2010
Format:Paperback
My more knowledgeable colleagues tell me this book is out of date and was not a good buy - look for a book covering Struts Version 2 instead

3.0 out of 5 stars Fine as an intro 3 Jun 2005
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
I bought this book having decided to use Struts as the development framework for a project and have been pretty disappointed. Although it is good enough introductory book on Struts it isn't much of a reference manual and is far from "complete." It misses some pretty basic information (the scope of form beans for example is never really explained, and "The Struts Tag Libraries" part lacks some critical information, such as the various rules for parameters used in each tag). Many of the examples are way too simplistic - there isn't any discussion on database connectivity either with JDBC or with a persistence framework, and so on. Read it as a leg up but be prepared for the fact that you will out grow it pretty quickly - I rarely refer to my copy and I only bought it a month ago...
