There's not a whole lot of redirect support built in. I use it a lot on my webapps and I'm interested in submitting code for more redirect support, but when I try to bring it up in the dev list, I don't get a response.
Of course, I haven't contributed anything anywhere yet so I may be going about it the wrong way. Perhaps the committers wanna see actual patch submissions before they take me seriously. (Craig suggested starting a discussion first - http://jakarta.apache.org/site/contributing.html). I'm close to having patches ready, so I'll see what happens then. I guess the lack of support for redirects can mean no one really uses redirects, or that the committers just don't see a need for it (though it's among the requests with the most votes). Obviously the committers know a lot about web app design or else Struts wouldn't be as well accepted as it is, so I guess that means I need to rethink some of the strategies I've been applying over the years. Anyway, you should think about submitting your new RedirectAction, too. --- Juan Alvarado <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi Hubert: > > Thanks for the tip on that.
