Greetings, A while back I sparked a lengthy discussion on the topic of a "configurable" preproccessor that can make calls on model components for common data preparation (pre-action). Someone told me thet the Workflow extension accomplished this. I didn't find that to be completely true (I think it was a misunderstanding of my problem).
As a result I am consdering using the "Struts Action Plugin Extension" (http://www.asqdotcom.be/struts/) that is displayed on the Struts resource page. I was curious what committers' thoughts were on this extension. Has this extension been considered as becoming part of the Struts code base ? If not, then is there something comparable in the works? There is a need for a configurable prepocessor or action chaining that allows for "reusing" common contoller and data preparation code without having to hard code it into your Action class. If this is a viable plug-in (and it looks pretty darn slick to me) then I will commit to helping to enhance it and provide patches for integrating it into the Struts code base. Following is the link to this extension. Can some developers give me some opinions as to the viability and longevity of this extension? I would like to avoid an Action/Servlet chaining debate. imho this extesion avoids all those hairy issues and is quite different. It is integrated a lot smoother. I am just interested in hearing about alternative solutions and/or potential compatibility issues with other popular extensions.
