Did you try to use the new REST plugin without Convention plugin ? > REST plugin can work with XML based configuration as well and it has > support for namespace prefix - struts.rest.namespace
So, I can't get this to work when using with convention/rest plugin combination. I did NOT try to use it with a xml/rest plugin combo. After looking through the code, it doesn't appear that it would work, but I'm not that familiar with the code. As Antonios says, the RestActionMapper doesn't see this setting at all. The RestActionProxyFactory DOES see it though. The problem is that by the time the proxy factory get's the ActionMapping, the mapper has already decided that the namespace is empty string. So, the rest proxy thinks that the request isn't for a REST action, because it's not in struts.rest.namespace, and the whole request get's handed over to the default proxy factory. So, it seems like the RestActionMapper needs to be injected with the struts.rest.namespace so it can be knowledgeable aobut this when building the actionmapping namespace . . .
