i'm trying to get this feature to work, and i'm basically using past discussions from this group as documentation since i couldn't find any on the website.
from what i understand, using multiple struts config files seems pretty damned simple. basically, if i wanted to use a struts config for a sub-application named "subapp", i would create a struts-config-subapp.xml and configure it as i would any normal struts config file, and i would add the following lines to the web.xml in the struts servlet definition: <init-param> <param-name>config/subapp</param-name> <param-value>/WEB-INF/struts-config-subapp.xml</param-value> </init-param> now, to access any actions in struts-config-subapp.xml, i just need to prefix those action calls with "subapp". so.... if i have the "/actions" mapped to struts as follows: <servlet-mapping> <servlet-name>action</servlet-name> <url-pattern>/actions/*</url-pattern> </servlet-mapping> i would invoke an action from struts-config-subapp.xml using a url ending with the following string: /actions/subapp/<action-mapping-name> this is pretty straightforward, right? well i can't get it to work, and i think i know why. the configuration appears to be correctly parsed when the servlet init's. my problem is invoking actions that are configured in anything other than the main struts-config file. ok, the first thing that touches my requests is ActionServlet, which hands off the request to it's process() method. ActionServlet.process() infers which ApplicationConfig to use, and then uses the appropriate RequestProcessor. however, in my case, the appropriate RequestProcessor is never found because RequestUtils.selectApplication() isn't finding the correct ApplicationConfig. the problem is the first line of RequestUtils.selectApplication(request, context): String matchPath = request.getServletPath(); this always returns "/actions" (which doesn't map to any of the keys for any of the application configs), and i think what it's supposed to return is "/subapp". if i didn't have more faith in y'all, i'd say i just found a bug, but instead i'm assuming that i've made some sort of mistake in my understanding. (there's also the fact that this functionality appears to have been in use by others for quite sometime --- also an indication that i'm just an idiot.) anyway, can someone either set me straight or back me up here? i've gone as far as i can go on my own. thanks, ab ps - i'm using 04-12 nightly build. _________________________________________________________________ MSN Photos is the easiest way to share and print your photos: http://photos.msn.com/support/worldwide.aspx -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
