In an action that uses the form bean you want to replace, you can do
something like this:
if ("request".equals(mapping.getScope()))
request.setAttribute(mapping.getAttribute(), form);
else
request.getSession().setAttribute(mapping.getAttribute(), form);
This assumes that the new form bean is of the same class as the one being
replaced/the one struts instantiated for you. Otherwise you could copy the
properties from bean to bean, manually or with BeanUtils.
