Hi
In my investigations on Struts I have developed yet another BaseAction class (based on
the Template design pattern) so I can put all common processing for actions in one
place. In this class I use the methods resetToken, saveToken to ensure that ALL
transactional actions are checked to see if they double posts. Isend a new togen with
every GET request and check for token validity with every POST request. After all
that is what GETs and POSTs were designed for.
I think I have done something useful. But this seems such an obvious thing to do that
I am wondering why has it not been done before and included within the Struts code.
Have I missed a flaw in my approach?
In summary
BaseAction extends Action
execute (mapping, form,request,response) {
if request is POST then
if double post then
forward to warning page
end if;
resetToken
else
savetoken
end if
}
