Hello Kishore
Commons is very useful for any kind of
Java development. A Struts app is just one of the possibilities.
Commons has dozens of useful components that each do a definite task very well. Most of the Jakarta projects use Commons components. Check the lib directory of
Tomcat, Struts...
So it is quite likley that you are already using a component, framework, server... that uses Commons.
Do a
commons*.jar search on your machine and you might be surprised by the results.
