QUESTION - Jonathan
Can someone tell me if there is a way to configure an action to match a path regardless of how deep it is in a directory? ANSWER - Ted No. There is not a way to do this, without changing the way Struts is programmed to behave. You could request a feature change in Bugzilla, and bring it up on the DEV list for discussion. ================================================================== As I was experimenting with our struts app I ran into the situation where I wanted a generic "path-indifferent" name to trigger an action. For instance, in the following three cases: "/charts/display.do" "/news/display.do "/events/outdoors/display.do" I didnt care about anything except the existence of "display.do" ANYWHERE at the end of ANY path. In fact, isnt this exactly how the servlet is triggered with ".do" This is what I expected, and the current Struts design wont let me do this. Do you all think this is an important feature? I really would like it as it can give a sense that the behaviour is common, and saves me time in thinking about how to properly trigger that particular action I was wanting. |
