Using Third-Party Tag Library
Spring tags and JSTL are complementary tag libraries providing a rich set of reusable fea-
tures. Although Spring tags provide decent component support for common HTML
controls, at times you will need more complex controls, such as the pagination table
mentioned earlier. In such scenarios, third-party tag libraries can be used along with
Spring to ease development. Displaytag, for example, is an open source tag library sup-
porting complex pagination and sorting components. It is available for download and

Benefits
•
Ease maintenance
: View helpers remove scriptlet pollution and thus clean up view
code and improve application maintainability.
•
Clear role separation
: The task of application development can now be clearly
divided between hard-core Java programmers and web authors.
•
Save development time
: Since mostly third party view helper tag libraries are
used, it can speed up development because you just need to integrate these
components.
