------------------------------

             Summary: ValidationAware add callable method, called from 
DefaultWorkflowInterceptor
                 Key: WW-4071
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/WW-4071
             Project: Struts 2
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: Core Interceptors
    Affects Versions: 2.3.14
            Reporter: Eric Lentz
            Priority: Minor


When a form error occurs, the action is unaware of this event. There are 
situations whereby one should know that a form error has occurred. For example, 
one may wish to populate the ActionStack with special handling variables or set 
a flag denoting special logic that the JSP should handle. In short, it isn't 
unreasonable for one to want to know that a form error occurred and be able to 
respond to it with more than just a single JSP result attached to "input."

My suggestion would be within ValidationAware, add a method:
void actionError()


Within DefaultWorkflowInterceptor.doIntercept, there is already an if condition 
of:
if (validationAwareAction.hasErrors()) {

at the end of processing that if block, just before, "return resultName;" call 
validationAwareAction.actionError();

By the way, this line:
LOG.debug("Errors on action " + validationAwareAction + ", returning result 
name 'input'");

should be:
LOG.debug("Errors on action " + validationAwareAction + ", returning result 
name '" + inputResultName + "'");
