Greedy and non-greedy matching behaviour should work in action methods using
annotated wildcards
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: WW-3784
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/WW-3784
Project: Struts 2
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Core Actions
Affects Versions: 2.3.1.2
Environment: Win XP, Linux / JDK 7 (Oracle)
Reporter: Mo Be
@Namespace("/do")
public class CRUDAction {
/* [1] specific wildcard */
@Override @Action(value="some/usefull/{stuff}",results={@Result(location =
"result.jsp")})
public String execute() throws Exception {...}
/* [2] less specific wildcard */
@Override @Action(value="some/{stuff}", results={@Result(location
="result.jsp")})
public String input() throws Exception {...} }
Currently pattern [2] due to greedy natching catches every "/do/some/{stuff}"
AND "/do/some/usefull/{stuff}" event.
For instance while calling /do/some/eating or /do/some/usefull/sleeping will
both end in [2] where stuff becomes "eating" or "usefull/sleep" respectively,
[1] is left behind with nothing to do.
The expected matching behaviour should always be from more specific to less
specific.
I.e. [2] should never fire before [1]. So that /do/some/usefull/sleeping would
correctly map to [1] with stuff==sleeping and /do/some/eating correctly maps to
[2] with stuff==eating.
Using xml one can achieve the correct matching order by re-ordering the action
definitions (most specific action mapping comes first)
