Dispatcher was born from a port of Colin Moock's Event Delegation Model to ColdFusion. It bears a resemblance to other "Implicit Invocation" MVC frameworks in design (Model-Glue,Mach-II, ColdBox to name a few...).

Why build another MVC Front Controller? To better understand how Model View Controller is implemented I decided to try building one as a learning opportunity. One thing led to another and this is the result.

Dispatcher can be instantiated into application scope or managed by a Dependency Injection/Inversion of Control container. If you already use ColdSpring or LightWire, you can manage the dependency of Dispatcher for a DispatcherConfig object.
