RE: Multiple struts-config.xml
Hi Ashutosh, My application is huge one and hence the single struts-config.xml becomes bulky. Sometimes even we are getting exception while in purging the struts-config file. So I want to split it in two. From that persepective after going through your mail I have two doubts regarding this. 1. Is splitting the file in the way you mentioned in your mail is possible in Struts 1.0.2 ? 2. If both the struts file related to same application how do we set the relative path of the second struts file in param-name element ?

Re: multiple struts-config.xml - multiple modules?
If the tools are being developed by the same people, you'll probably be better off using mutiple struts configuration files than modules. Modules are best suited for when things are being developed by independant parties who aren't working together. If that doesn't describe you, then just give each tool it's own subdirectory and use that same name to identify everything else that goes with the tool. Even if you used modules, you can't distribute them as separate WARs. If your container supports single logon, as Tomcat does, you can distribute each tool as a separate application and flip back and forth between after a single logon. With a modern container, you can also share JARs and save some resources. The applications can't share session information, though, so you'd have to pass everything through the request or cookies or a database.

I asked a similar question re potential problems with multiple action servlet instances(no reply).

Re: Multiple struts-config.xml files?
The Struts 1.0 ActionServlet stores a number of elements in Application scope. // Publish our internal collections as necessary getServletContext().setAttribute(Action.FORM_BEANS_KEY, formBeans); getServletContext().setAttribute(Action.FORWARDS_KEY, forwards); getServletContext().setAttribute(Action.MAPPINGS_KEY, mappings); So, it's really not really threading issues (mispoke), but the last ActionServlet would win when it came to the Application scope elements. The custom tag extensions look to these to retrieving the ActionForwards and what not. Check for these statics in utils.RequestUtils, and you will see what I mean. Of course, if you are not using the custom tags, then it may not matter. -- Ted Husted, Husted dot Com, Fairport NY USA. -- Java Web Development with Struts. -- Tel +1 585 737-3463. -- Web http://www.husted.com/struts/ Struts Newsgroup (@Basebeans.com) wrote: Subject: Re: Multiple struts-config.xml files?

RE: Multiple struts-config.xml files?
For the record, to create multiple ActionServlets, I just extended ActionServlet with an empty class body - basically creating an identical servlet with a different name, for each role. This is working fine with each ActionServlet reading a different struts-config file.

Re: Multiple struts-config.xml files?
I just had one ActionServlet, and for each action defined in it's struts-config.xml, there is a separate forward defined per role (prefixed by role name). role1_success role2_success etc. All forward name strings (e.g. success) get intercepted essentially by a super class Action and then the user's role is added to the forward name. The actual ActionForward is then looked up in the action mapping and returned to the Struts ActionServlet.

Re: Multiple struts-config.xml files?
Struts 1.0 isn't designed to permit multiple ActionServlets. Unless
you've made some alterations, there may be threading problems.
Struts 1.1 does speak to the issues you raise, but we are all still
getting our heads around it, and trying to put some documentation
together.
I was also just thinking about trying something like what Nick
describes, but in the context of localization or browserization, but
it could work the same as roles. But I'm thinking along the lines of
getting the ActionMapping and ActionForwards do the work.
What I'm thinking about is using an ActionMapping subclass as an
ActionForward factory. When calling findMapping, you could also pass the
request. It would then return a new ActionForward, that would know how
to amend the path according to something in the request or session. Like
the locale, or maybe a role object.
It would then work like Nick described. Instead of just going to
/pages/some.jsp, it could go to /pages/fr/some.jsp or pages/zh/some.jsp.
Or in your case /pages/manager/some.jsp or /pages/clerk/some.jsp. If
some paths could be changed, and others couldn't, there might be a
marker in the path, like /pages/{0}some.jsp, for the ones that could be
merged.
Still at the thinking stage though.
