files.

                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/struts/browse/WW-1967
             Project: Struts 2
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Actions
    Affects Versions: 2.0.6
         Environment: Fedora 4, tomcat
            Reporter: Greg Huber
            Priority: Minor


Hello,
I have been trying to get validation working with dynamic method invocation, 
using ActionName-aliasName-validation.xml files.

When the struts.property is set >> struts.enable.DynamicMethodInvocation=true,  
 in the DefaultActionMapper the mapping name is changed by removing !submit 
from the action eg fieldValidatorsExamples!submit becomes 
fieldValidatorsExamples.  When the validator tries to find 
FieldValidatorsExampleAction-fieldValidatorsExamples!submit-validator.xml it 
cannot, as the validator is looking for 
FieldValidatorsExampleAction-fieldValidatorsExamples-validator.xml.  But this 
is now not linked to a method.

        if (allowDynamicMethodCalls) {
            // handle "name!method" convention.
            String name = mapping.getName();
            int exclamation = name.lastIndexOf("!");
            if (exclamation != -1) {
                mapping.setName(name.substring(0, exclamation)); 
                mapping.setMethod(name.substring(exclamation + 1));
            }
        }


With struts.enable.DynamicMethodInvocation=false, validator works but method 
name is null.

This line of code is causing the problem mapping.setName(name.substring(0, 
exclamation));.  Without this line seems to work but I am no expert!

eg:

<action name="fieldValidatorsExamples!*" 
class="org.apache.struts2.showcase.validation.FieldValidatorsExampleAction" 
method="{1}" >
<result name="input" 
type="dispatcher">/validation/fieldValidatorsExample.jsp</result>
<result type="dispatcher">/validation/successFieldValidatorsExample.jsp</result>
</action>

<s:form action="fieldValidatorsExamples!submit" namespace="/validation" 
method="POST" theme="xhtml">
            <s:textfield label="Required Validator Field" 
name="requiredValidatorField" />
            <s:textfield label="Required String Validator Field" 
name="requiredStringValidatorField" />
            <s:textfield label="Integer Validator Field" 
name="integerValidatorField" />
            <s:textfield label="Date Validator Field" name="dateValidatorField" 
/>
            <s:textfield label="Email Validator Field" 
name="emailValidatorField" />
            <s:textfield label="URL Validator Field" name="urlValidatorField" />
            <s:textfield label="String Length Validator Field" 
name="stringLengthValidatorField" />
            <s:textfield label="Regex Validator Field" 
name="regexValidatorField"/>
            <s:textfield label="Field Expression Validator Field" 
name="fieldExpressionValidatorField" />
            <s:submit label="Submit" />
</s:form>

Cheers Greg
