I did try the following, but it throws a NPE when I try to get the mapping:
ModuleConfig mConfig = mapping.getModuleConfig();
ActionMapping aMapping = (ActionMapping)
mConfig.findActionConfig("/saveCMCF");
errors = theForm.validate(aMapping, request);
if (!errors.isEmpty()) {
saveErrors(request, errors);
}
Any assistance is appreciated,
Matt
