I knew somebody would ask me why :-)
Okay, I am using the String[] that returns from mapping.findForwards() to
generate links in the left nav bar. This way, I will only generate the
links for the Action I call. For example,
<action path="/project"
type="com.evebill.billyng.ui.about_me.AboutMeBase"
name="AboutMeAction">
<forward name="bridge" path="/jsp/about_me/bridge.jsp"/>
<forward name="subway" path="/jsp/about_me/subway.jsp"/>
<forward name="library" path="/jsp/about_me/library.jsp"/>
</action>
String[] forwards = mapping.findForwards();
for (int i=0; i< forwards.length; i++) {
ActionForward forward = mapping,findForward(forwards[i]);
out.print("<A href=\""+forward.getPath()+"\">"+forward.getName()+"</A>";
}
I know I am lazy, but it works very good except the sorting. That's why I
want the elements of the String[] has the order I put in struts-conf.xml
