Becky O'Sullivan commented on WW-2661:
--------------------------------------
Oh! I completely missed that.
Perhaps it would be a good idea to make a note of it in the wildcard-mappings
page.
I'll give it a try and, if it works, see if I can close this ticket.
> ** does not match the backslach character when mapping wildcards in struts.xml

> Key: WW-2661
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/struts/browse/WW-2661
> Project: Struts 2
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Core Actions
> Affects Versions: 2.1.2
> Environment: Windows XP Professional & BEA Weblogic Server v10
> Reporter: Becky O'Sullivan
>
> The Developers Guide (a great guide, by the way) states that two asterisks (
> ** ) will match zero or more characters, including the slash character, for
> action names: http://struts.apache.org/2.1.2/docs/wildcard-mappings.html
> So I interpret that to mean:
> <action name="/edit**" class="org.xyz.MyAction">
> <result>/myPage.jsp</result>
> </action>
> Would work for the following URLs:
> http://myDomain/edit
> http://myDomain/editabc
> http://myDomain/edit/abc
> It does work for all words that begin with edit (http://myDomain/editabc)
> However, it is not allowing the slash character (http://myDomain/edit/abc)
> When it encounters a slash after edit it assumes the following text is an
> action name and returns an error like this:
> "There is no Action mapped for action name abc."
> Did I misinterpret the page's explanation?
