http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=28609 Scriptable Actions Support Summary: Scriptable Actions Support Product: Struts Version: Nightly Build Platform: Other OS/Version: All Status: NEW Severity: Enhancement Priority: Other Component: Standard Actions AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED] This patch brings the Struts BSF project, http://struts.sf.net/struts-bsf, into Struts core as an optional, built-in action. It provides ScriptAction which uses the Bean Scripting Framework, http://jakarta.apache.org/bsf, to allow the developer to implement Struts actions using any scripting language supported by BSF including Jython, Rhino (JavaScript), BeanShell, JRuby, and Groovy. Feature list: * Implement Actions with JavaScript, BeanShell, etc. * Supports all BSF languages * Scripts cached in memory on first use * Ability to pass parameters to script through Struts config * Can define custom filters to make business objects easily available This patch requires the addition of the BSF jar, which of course is only needed by the user if they choose to use ScriptAction. It also brings with it a small framework for adding "filters" to put business objects into the context, among other uses. A similiar and more capable functionality exists in the VelocityTools project, but in its absence in Struts core, this should suffice. I added a "bsf" package under o.a.s.actions because of the extra filter files. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
