Lukasz Lenart commented on WW-3534:
-----------------------------------

There is no such code which casts to a map.
                
> PrepareOperations.createActionContext does not detect existing context 
> correctly

> ****The Problem****
> In revision 768529 (current head revision) of 
> /struts2/trunk/core/src/main/java/org/apache/struts2/dispatcher/ng/PrepareOperations.java
>  at lines 72-73, there is a logic error. 
> ActionContext.getContext will never return null, it always returns a context 
> object (when no context has been created in the thread, action 
> ActionContext.getContext() casts an empty map to an ActionContext object when 
> it returns, so, even thoughg no initialization has been done, the getContext 
> method still returns a non-null object that contains an empty context map).
> The implication of this is that, when the StrutsPrepareAndExecuteFilter (and 
> presumably the StrutsPrepareFilter) runs, execution never follows the code 
> branch which is designed to initialize the value stack.
> I think the reason this does not cause more problems is that there seems to 
> be defensive code in a lot of places that initializes the 
> valuestack/actioncontext if things don't "look right". 
> ****Where I saw the problem****
> In my use case, I initialize the locale in the action context (scriptlet in 
> the view jsp...)  prior to using any <s:text> tag. When I do use a tag, the 
> text helper code detects that there is no value stack and creates a new 
> actioncontext (thus blowing away the locale setting that I had established). 
> The result is that regardless of what I set the locale to, the tags always 
> rendered in the default locale. Hack was to use any tag that manipulates the 
> value stack before setting the locale but, this obviously needs to be fixed...
