Hi,
You are almost close. the only problem with this model is
that I am very closely coupling it in the code. So
according to this design LoginAction will every time follow
GetAccount Action.which I donot think is the desired functionality.
rather It should Ideally go in the descriptor and descriptor should look some thing
like
this.
Now assume that I am using LoginAction in my two products say in my lead manager
and other one in Inventory manager module
So Ideally the descriptor should look like this
For login in lead manager:
<action name="loginLeadManager" success="accountPage.jsp" failure="login.jsp">
<action classname="com.tavat.loginAction" />
<action className="com.tavant.getAccountsAction" />
</action >
For login in Inventory module:
<action name="loginInventoryManager" success="myInventoryPage.jsp" failure="login.jsp">
<action classname="com.tavat.loginAction" />
<action className="com.tavant.getInventoryAction" />
</action >
So this is how I think I can have a perfect decoupled code.
I donot think Struts give this great support.
Please note the tags I am using are just dummy ones and are used to explain the whole
stuff.
Thanks,
Sourav Das
