Hi,
I programmed Struts 1.0 and its been a while since I coded struts. Is there a way to update my knowledge about what are the new things afterwards.
Say for example when I tried a trivial program it says ActionErrors add("",new ActionError(....)) is deprecated. This and these kind of things.
Can anyone help me.

Thanks,
Senthil G Kumaresan.

There is a wealth of information in the User Guide. Just browse through it and check for things that may be different than you remember.

The big differences are:
1. The way the configuration file works. It allows for multiple contexts
2. The addition of the validation framework

For a specific issue like the one you mention about something being deprecated, you can check the API.

To navigate from the main struts page, under Documentation select javadocs. There you'll see that add method is deprecated use add with ActionMessage instead of ActionError.

(I haven't upgraded, but in my old version of struts there's struts-documentation.war you can deploy. You get documentation specific to your version that way.)
