Ok, that I did not know...
Tonight's nightly build will include Javadocs for ViewController that make this requirement much more explicit -- you're not the first person to run into it.
But now I have changed the name of my managed bean to correspond to this naming scheme, but still no methods is called...? Am I missing more...?
Without more details about what you're doing, it's impossible to tell what is going wrong -- but one thing you should *not* be worrying about is explicitly declaring the Shale ViewController. That happens automatically when shale-core.jar is included in your webapp.
Does the "use cases" example app work for you?

The most common cause for this is having a managed bean name (for your ViewController) that does not match the name mapping rules that Shale requires. There is a pluggable interface for this, but the default rules take a context relative view id, and convert it to a corresponding managed bean name like this: * Strip the leading "/" character * Strip the trailing ".jsp" (or whatever) extension * Convert any remaining "/" characters to "$" characters.
Thus, if you have a view named "/mainmenu.jsp", the corresponding view controller managed bean *must* be named "mainmenu". Likewise, a vew named "/customer/details.jsp" would be mapped to managed bean name "customer$details".
