http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=23104 ConditionalForwardAction ------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2003-09-11 15:12 ------- A new ActionConfig might be overkill. You can define a default ActionMapping type in the 'type' attribute of the 'action-mappings' element, or you can just specify your custom ActionMapping type on a per-mapping basis using the 'className' attribute of 'action'-- that's not really asking too much of someone who's already got to learn your sophisticated conditional configuration model. I think your original syntax was a lot nicer than the XML in your latest posting. The last thing you want to do is invent yet another XML grammar for programming conditional logic! You could write a custom ActionMapping with a mapped property "condition". Then you could just have <action path="/search/national/page" type="com.sa.go.web.struts.ConditionalForwardAction" className="com.sa.go.web.struts.ConditionalForwardActionMapping" unknown="false"> <set-property property="condition(el:${empty sessionScope.buyandsave_advancedSearchResults})" value="search" /> <set-property property="condition(el:${...})" value="..." /> <set-property property="defaultMapping" value="paging" /> <forward name="search" path="/search" redirect="true" /> <forward name="paging" path="stad.buyandsave.nationalSearchResults" /> </action> I'm not entirely sure if PropertyUtils would be fussy about a complicated value inside the parentheses, but I'm pretty sure it's just treated as string literal. Internally, use a SequencedHashMap to store the conditions and you can enforce the order of evaluation. Whoops; I really should be meeting my deadline! :-) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
