Struts 1 Plugin for Grails

This one is hitting all of the Grails lists, but it's worth repeating. A Struts 1 plugin for Grails was just released.

Not only can you use this plugin to migrate your legacy Struts 1.x application by copying your config xml files, java files, and jsps into a Grails app. But you can also have your struts 1 actions use GSPs for rendering or even write your controller login in Grails controllers.

This is a shining example of how Grails' (and Groovy's) peaceful co-existence with Java can pay huge dividends.

So if you're stuck with a Struts 1.x app and desperately seeking a way to modernize your architecture, check it out yesterday.
