It is hard for me to believe you got past a single user with out resetting

properties to assist in populating your form, the properties need to be
reset.
Well, if I'm hitting a form with existing values (like an 'edit'
operation) I'd load up the form using the BeanUtils, not reset, because
that doesn't strike me as an appropriate place to fill a bean with
values from a DB. Other than occasional checkbox games I've never
directly used the reset method.
In the JavaDoc it clearly states that "The default implementation does
nothing. In practice, the only properties that need to be reset are
those which represent checkboxes on a session-scoped form. Otherwise,
properties can be given initial values where the field is declared."
I've written four fairly major webapps using struts, have touched the
reset method maybe 2-3x (for checkboxes), and that's it. I have _never_
seen a case where I've gotten any old values, including under
stress-testing with dozens of simulated users posting/reading unique
form values.
I haven't thought about it much at all lately, though, I use
DynaValiatorActionForms almost exclusively.
