About Slug
While a good web site would respond to any requests instantly, sometimes there are processes that cannot be completed so quickly. Despite the nature of this "sluggish" behavior, site's user will always expects fast response and if a process can not be completed right a way - process status indicating what progress is made.
Slug is a light weight J2EE application framework that addresses this problem by allowing quick response, process progress updates and limited process management. It offers progress monitoring and process cancellation that may be coded either as pure Java Servlets or JSPs or by AJAX calls using provided JSP Tag Library.
The two different ways of Slug's usage are outlined in a simple demo application , that is distributed with main framework sources.
