Hi!
I have extended the RequestProcessor's processPreprocess() method
in order to perform a simple user authentication mechanism using
cookies. If a cookie identifying a user is found, but the users member-
ship has expired, I would like him to be forwarded/redirected to a
corresponding error page. What is the best way to do this? I tried
the following:
request.getRequestDispatcher( "membershipExpired.jsp" ).forward( request,
response );
which works fine. But this is surely not how struts should work because
I have hardcoded the target in my code, and not configured in my
struts-config.xml for example. So if the error page changes I have to
chnage my code and not only the struts-config.xml. Does anybody know
a better solution? I tried a global-forward like this but it didn't work:
<global-forwards>
<forward name="nodb" path="/membershipExpired.jsp" />
</global-forwards>
with
request.getRequestDispatcher( "nodb" ).forward( request, response );
Perhaps I made a mistake somewhere...
