We are thinking about upgrading up from WSAD 4 to WSAD 5 , and still use WAS 4. We
know that WSAD 5 has the handy develop as J2EE 1.2 or 1.3 feature.
For those of you using this setup now, how has it
been working for you?
One feature of WSAD 5 we really want to take advantage of is Struts. Will we
be able to develop J2EE 1.2 projects using struts and deploy them on WAS 4
without issues, or do we need to reconfigure WAS 4?
Thanks,
GS

GS,
I haven't developed using the setup you are trying to use.
But I have developed Stuts based application using wsad 4 & deployed in WAS4.
What I see in WSAD5 is a very user friendly environment to develop struts based application.
I had to do it the hard way in WSAD4.
Frankly speaking I don't see any problems but I haven't done it myself.

We went from WSAD 4.03 to WSAD 5, when we deployed the 'wsad 5 exported ear' we had no problems with deployment without making changes to WAS 4.
You do have to add strut supports in WSAD 5 though, (context menu on the webproject, web tabpage, select 'add struts support')
