Personally, I see the 'non path mapped' nature of WebWork actions as a flaw.
I haven't found one good use for them yet.
I would love to see something to stop actions from moving. I think the
configuration can be made very simple - it need not be as complex as Jaso

Guys,
Adding more junk to the Actions.xml is a sure way fire way to make
using WebWork more difficult. Do a comparison of our mapping file and
Struts and you will see what I'm talking about.

I agree. I believe that configuration in WebWork is one area of improvement
that should be addressed in the next version. I'll jot up some ideas I've
had as well as yours. Maybe if we get a Wiki set up soon we can drop stuff
there.

I am not asking for more help with validation really. But if BeanUtil cannot
set a property because the conversion to the type cannot be made, then it
catches the IllegalArgumentException thrown by the PropertyEditor and calls
the Action if it implements IllegalArgumentAware.

Ognl won't help with validation (maybe we can look at FormProc for something
like that), but it will do all levels of type conversion you require. That
includes global level, as well as bean level, and even property level.

All,
I think we need to put together a 1.3 release sometime within the next
month or so. The focus of the next release needs to be quality above
all else. The 1.2.x releases were very poor and there are people

Hi there,
When implementing the new "BeanUtil" replacement it would be good if it
