I wasn't intending that the request object be kept around. Isn't it true that even if an ActionForm object is kept in the session scope, it is created in response to a HTTP request?
The idea is to simply use the ServletRequest or HttpServletRequest that caused the ActionForm object to be created to initialize the properties of the ActionForm. The ServletRequest or HttpServletRequest wouldn't be kept as an attribute of the ActionForm so there is no serialization problem. If an ActionForm object could get a hold of the HttpServletRequest (and thus HttpSession) when it is created, you could eliminate the need for a separate Action to pre-populate the ActionForm properties. Does this make my request make any more sense or am I still missing something. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, July 10, 2003 5:20 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: DO NOT REPLY [Bug 21479] - Add ServletRequest or HttpServletRequest to ActionForm constructor DO NOT REPLY TO THIS EMAIL, BUT PLEASE POST YOUR BUG RELATED COMMENTS THROUGH THE WEB INTERFACE AVAILABLE AT <http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=21479>.
