I think I see the use case - while accessing /cart/ should be a valid request to the cart topic landing page (index), default action might map to a default "unknown URI" page, which has say a humble error message and some suggestions what URIs the user would want to access. -- Sent from my mobile phone

But isn't the same as default action per package ? Where you can specify the index action: <package name="default" namespace="/" extends="struts-default"> <default-action-ref name="index" /> <action name="index"> <result>index.jsp</result> </action> </package> Or would you have a more sophisticated mechanism which will automagically discover index action instead of specifying default action for each package ? The case is that there can be more than one class used to implement actions for given namespace.
