Found some typos: one of that needs to rectify is on page#27; execute() signature should be corrected. mentioned "void String" as return type. "public void String execute()..."
"A Great Way to Get Started with Struts 2" Ted Husted At 122 pages, Starting with Struts 2 is a small book that doesn't try to replicate the online Struts 2 Documentation. Instead, the book is a perfect complement to the Struts 2 website. If you're a Struts 2 "newbie", this is the place to start! My only beef is that the book tended to suggest setting options through the properties file rather than directly in the Struts configuration file. But, that's probably just Ian's extensive WebWork experience showing! The best part is that since there is also a PDF download, you don't have to take my word for it. Download a softcopy, and if you like what you see, grab the hardcopy to read on the train!
