That's a very good point. So, it seems that .action invocation is indeed something that is necessary to keep.I will run the action without a result a few times to start off to make sure it compiles and goes through to success and so forth. I also have some (very few) actions that don't actually have a view at all, but write directly to the servlet output stream. Yes I know it's ugly, I hate it too, but there are several cases where I am pretty much forced to do this, most notably when the output needs to be streaming in some way. There is another early development thing you can do to make initial development easier, but that includes a change to MakeIterator (my diff and source is attached) and a default mapping of success to a jsp that does:<ww:iterator> <ww:print value="value/propertyType" /> <ww:print value="key" /><br /> </ww:iterator> I find it very handy for initial debugging.
The argument against .action invocation, then, is only with regard to declarative security. Would it be ok to declare what roles may access it in xwork.xml? (both on action and package level)
One nice thing about that is that the information could be used by many different invokers, as opposed to the declarative security through web.xml option which only works for the web case.
