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

             Summary: Clarify support for action!default.action delegating to 
doDefault()
                 Key: WW-4315
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/WW-4315
             Project: Struts 2
          Issue Type: Task
          Components: Documentation
    Affects Versions: 2.3.16.1
            Reporter: Joseph Walton
            Priority: Minor


Struts currently accepts both {{action!method.action}} and 
{{action!doMethod.action}} and will delegate them to {{doMethod()}}. However, 
the documentation doesn't explain this, and release notes and previous issues 
suggest that this is specifically unsupported.

It would be nice to have a summary of whether this is supported for the 
long-term, still targeted for removal or a bug.

The [Release Notes 
2.0.0|http://struts.apache.org/release/2.3.x/docs/release-notes-200.html] say:

{quote}
In Struts,
try to execute submit method in the action, fail
fail
{quote}

and WW-1423 specifically requests that behaviour be changed but, as of 
2.3.16.1, {{DefaultActionInvocation}} will still retry {{doSubmit}}.
