Presentation layer and the Spring Framework


Use the Spring Web model view controller (MVC) framework and the Spring Framework Portlet MVC framework with WAS.

 

Web MVC framework

WAS supports the use of the Spring Web MVC framework.

There are also Web MVC frameworks that are provided with WAS, such as Java Server Faces (JSF) and Apache Struts, which have IBM product support. For information about how to integrate Spring with these Web MVC frameworks, see the Spring documentation.

 

Portlet MVC framework

The Spring Framework Portlet MVC framework can run in the portlet container in WAS Version 6.1 and later. To run portlets in the portlet container, create an additional Web app to define the layout and aggregation of the portlets. For details about how to use the portlet aggregator tag library, see the related topics.
