This project allows wildcards to be used in Struts 1.1+ action mappings. The
wildcard-matched values can then be substituted in the values of various
Struts action mapping and action forward attributes. It uses the wildcard
matching class from Apache Cocoon which is the default matching class used to
match XML transformation pipelines.
The bottom line of this project is you can write generic actions that can be
used to match multiple actions. Even the "type" attribute which specifies the
Action class can have wildcard-matched values substituted to match multiple
Action classes for one action mapping. It also works great for Struts
applications that use DispatchActions or other generic Actions.
For example:
<action path="/edit*"
type="org.twdata.struts.ScriptAction"
attribute="{1}Form"
scope="request"
validate="false"
parameter="/WEB-INF/scripts/Edit{1}.bsh">
<forward name="failure" path="/mainMenu.jsp"/>
<forward name="success" path="/{1}.jsp"/>
</action>
