Hello,
I am looking for a Java web framework which is similar to Grails or Ruby on Rails. I mean that I can use still Java and I do not need any configuration.
Struts is pretty feature-light and has some serious architectural issues. Others, like WebWork 2 and Spring-MVC are much better, but still require a lot of configuration, and seem to require you to learn a whole new language just to get started.

Is it true?
True of false depends on "when" they said that.
SCJA 1.0, SCJP 1.4, SCWCD 1.4, SCBCD 1.3, SCJP 5.0, SCEA 5, SCBCD 5; OCUP - Fundamental, Intermediate and Advanced; IBM Certified Solution Designer - OOAD, vUML 2; SpringSource Certified Spring Professional
Struts1 is pretty much legacy and shouldn't be used anymore. Struts2 is pretty popular and their are ways to make it's configuration minimal. SpringMVC is mostly configuration free at this point with support for annotations, although you can still wire things up using XML if you like. As I said, most other frameworks these days are pretty light on configuration; Tapestry, Wicket, etc.
Basically, the way I look at projects these days is can it be done in Grails? If not, then can it be done in Stripes? If not, I'm not sure what I'd look at because that hasn't happened yet.

I think it is also up to personal taste. For me I don't like CoC much, I prefer to write configuration because it's much more clear.

Is it possible to use GWT with Stripes, Struts 2 or Spring MVC? Are there howtos?
