'attribute' is an alias for 'name'. if none is specified, name is used. You can look at the javadoc of ActionMapping for complete doc on the <action> tag.
-----Message d'origine----- De : Kevin HaleBoyes [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Envoye : mardi 1 octobre 2002 17:23 A : [EMAIL PROTECTED] Objet : struts-config.xml question I'm looking at the struts-example and its struts-config.xml file. In the <action> section for editRegistration, 'attribute' is set to 'registrationForm'. As I understand it (from the DTD), attribute is the name of the scoped (session or request) attribute that is used to access the ActionForm bean. Now in the <action> section for saveRegistration 'name' is set to 'registrationForm'. 'name' is the name of the form bean that is associated with this mapping. What is the difference between 'attribute' and 'name'? It seems that they are the same thing. Is this true? Looking at the source for the edit and save registration actions, they both call mapping.getAttribute() to get the name of the ActionForm bean. Why does that work for the saveRegistration action when it doesn't even have an 'attribute' defined for its <action>? Why doesn't saveRegistration use 'attribute' instead of 'name'? Thanks, Kevin. __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
